Preparation steps

1.

Rinse the basil and arugula, then pat dry. Set aside half of the arugula. Finely chop the remaining arugula and the basil in a blender. 

2.

Peel and coarsely chop the garlic. 

3.

Add the pecorino cheese, pine nuts, garlic, and oil to the blender. Puree the mixture until a thick pesto has formed. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 

4.

Cook the linguine in boiling salted water until al dente. Drain the linguine thoroughly, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water. Mix the cooking water with the pesto. Mix the linguine with the pesto, and toss to combine. Transfer the linguine to plates, top with the reserved arugula, and serve.
