My Simple Pesto
3
What you need:
1/3 cup of pine nuts (delicious of toasted, but not necessary to the sauce)
2 pinches of salt (give or take, depending on your preference)
¾ cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Olive Oil is the entire background to the pesto. The higher the quality of Olive Oil, the higher the quality of the sauce.)
½ cup of finely minced garlic. (Freshly minced garlic is the best, but I won’t hold it against you if you’d rather buy yours pre-chopped. Don’t tell anyone, but I do it too.)
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese.
¼ cup feta cheese (Feta can be crumbled into almost ANY dish! It’s delicious and many people will be impressed you can make a dish that involves a foreign cheese!)
4 cups of basil leaves (wash them and dry them on a paper towel beforehand)
Blender
Preparation:
Add basil, salt, pine nuts, olive oil, and garlic to blender and blend on high.
Remove from blender and add cheeses.
Now serve on your favorite pesto-accepting dish!
