Fresh pesto
Posted this today and thought I would put it here as well.......
Pesto Recipe.....To make fresh pesto...
I use fresh basil leaves...those who have gardens are usually gathering them up at the end of the season....
I use fresh virgin olive oil....
Pignoli nuts....'
Walnuts some times....when I'm making a lot because them pignolis are so damn expensive...
Real grated parmesan cheese....
Lots of pulverized fresh garlic...
And a touch of some other secret spices....(oregano, little bit of pepper....etc.....)
It's a lot of work and I usually don't give out things that take me so much time and effort to make....
One year Pebbles and I were canning....we made some pints of very hot peppers,........canned in olive oil....some of ya's were the lucky ones to get a jar of those....it really was a lot of work and time to make them.....
They tasted great when drizzled over pasta and gravy, or just alone with the hot pepper oil over the pasta.....
Hope that clears things up....
