Pesto
Ingredients :
2 cups (500 g) fresh basilica (pressed) leaves only (no stems)
3 garlic cloves
2/3 cup (150 ml) extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup (50 g) pinholes (pine nuts)
1 teaspoon (5 ml) coarse salt
Preparation:
In a blender, mix all ingredients
except the olive oil.
Chopped finely, and then add gradually the oil.
Serve on pasta.
Note: Since the Pesto blackens rapidly, we must keep it refrigerated
or frozen in a sealed container and make sure a layer of olive
oil covers it.
