No rucola, no parsley. The rest of your recipe is similar, except that we add olive oil until we have a paste which pours off the spoon. We don't add Gnocchi water to cook the sauce. We usually serve cold over hot pasta and the pasta warms the sauce before eating. The sauce can easily be kept in the fridge for a month and retains its vivid green colour...yum!

Though maybe a milder lettuce or even spinach or another fresh herb (cilantro maybe?) could be good. Well we made it without the arugula completely and it was still darn good!

I wonder what I could substitute for arugula. Not a fan of it. This would be a good dish to make this summer when I grow my own basil! That looks SO good.
