Pesto base (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

basil

'pesto base' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for basil that I've seen before include "A herb; Cardinal --- Hume" , "Herb - Mr Fawlty" , "Herb (from Fawlty Towers?)" , "Bails out the herb" , "Boy - herb" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate.
