Pesto

Ingredientes

1C Chopped basil

1/2C Grated Parmesan cheese

1/2C Pine nuts

1/2C Olive oil

1t Salt

3 Cloves garlic

Instruções

• Place all ingredients in food processor or blender. Cover and process until smooth.

• Use immediately (toss to coat cooked pasta) or freeze up to up 1 month for later use.

Notas

• Walnuts or almonds can be used as substitute for pine nuts.

• Pesto can be made use, basil, parsley, or mint, depending on what you can get.

• I tend to make large amount of pesto w/o garlic to freeze to later use (since it proper store of garlic can produce toxin so I add it to the sauce when I am ready to use). I use a designate silicone ice tray for this.

• Can also toast hard crusted bread w/ it in the oven.
