Change Up Pesto with Amaranth Scott Whitus, a chef formerly with Café Zenon, is recently back from working at McCarthy Lodge in Alaska. He is now managing the kitchen at Belly. He uses amaranth greens when they're in season in place of basil in pesto, which was recently featured as a highlight on a special dish of duck confit with chanterelle ravioli. Whitus has used sprouted amaranth microgreens, and this year has enjoyed seeing amaranth at The Kiva and Urban Redneck Farm. Amaranth will be back in season next year, but if you happen to see any around town, make sure to grab some of the herb. “It’s a vibrant red, purple, burgundy color and it makes your pesto that color,” he says. “Pesto is a dish that everybody knows but with this it looks unique.” Taste-wise, it’s slightly earthier than basil and can be used cup for cup in place of the herb. Whitus uses a combination of amaranth, garlic, pine nuts, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper. “People have been loving it and it’s really unique to get that delicious flavor with a different color.” — Vanessa Salvia PUB AT LAURELWOOD 2700 Columbia St. 636-4818.
