Pesto

                                   Image result for pesto

An Italian sauce made of fresh basil leaves, fresh garlic, pine nuts, olive oil, Pecorino and Parmesan cheese and salt. The word "pesto" originates from the word "pestle" which means ground or pounded, since the ingredients were ground in a stone or marble bowl called a mortar, and pounded with a wood or stone rod, which is a pestle. Pesto, or "pesto alla genovese," originated in Genoa in the area called Liguria.


Ingredients

  • 2 Cups Fresh Basil Leaves Packed
  • 1/2 Cup Fresh Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 1/2 Cup Evoo or Fused/Infused oil of your choice (we like Tuscan Herb)
  • 1/3 Cup Pine Nuts or Walnuts
  • 3 Medium Size Garlic Cloves Minced
  • 1 Serving Salt & Pepper To Taste

Add to a food processor or blender and blend until thick.
