Check out video recording and Chef Tim's recipe to follow along below.
•  Fresh basil is best! It is great for flavor and texture.
•  I chose Rigatoni pasta, because it does a great job at holding the sauce.Â
•  You eat with your eyes. So even if you're cooking at home, spice up a dish with simple garnishes.
•   Mise en place is a must when cooking with kids. It really makes it easy for them to help out in the kitchen.
