Pesto
Ingredients (makes equivalent of a small jar): half a cup of olive oil a small bunch of freshly picked basil 3 cloves of garlic half a cup of almonds, soaked (will work if not soaked too) half a cup of brazil nuts, soaked Place the oil, garlic and basil in a blender and blend until basil is all chopped up but not smooth - add the nuts and blend until desired consistency. We like it not too smooth, still with some nutty texture. Gorgeous mixed into spelt pasta or as a spread in toasted sandwiches. Printable version |
