Pesto-Basil Sauce

Ingredients

34 gr basil leaves
6 gr garlic
120 ml olive oil
18 gr pine nuts
1 gr salt
1 pepper

Instructions

Puree all the ingredients in a blender or in a food processor. Or, if you want to do it the traditional way, pound the basil leaves, garlic, salt & nuts together with a mortar & pestle & then beat in the olive oil.

Use in soups or toss with hot pasta & serve as a main dish. Smaller quantities make an ideal appetizer. Will keep in the refrigerator or will freeze.
