Poznámky

Take 3 - 2025 Garden Harvest Pesto Notes:

• Use more kale than basil, but it needed more basil

• Had too mild of a taste. Added lime for acidity

• Maybe add seasoning next time. Or oregano parsley and maybe rosemary

Take 2 - Geary & Reagan Notes:

• See Geary’s book - “Salt Fat Acid Heat”
