1/2 cup of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 cup of walnuts
1/2 cup of Parmesan Cheese
3 cloves of grated garlic
2 cups of Italian Basil
1/2 cup of Italian Parsley
Salt and Pepper to taste
Notes: I use walnuts in this pesto because they are frankly a lot less expensive than pine nuts. I always have walnuts in my freezer. If you prefer, you can substitute pine nuts.
Blend all the ingredients together in a food processor until it forms a thick sauce.

ReplyDeleteThe combination of walnut and basil is extraordinary, though we Indians often combine peanuts and coriander for that nut chutney eaten in South. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI have never use walnuts in pesto. I love your common sense reason for the substitution.

ReplyDeleteI love making homemade pesto! Great idea with the walnuts!
ReplyDeleteYour pesto looks perfect. I love adding walnuts to pesto, especially when I add a little cilantro, I love the combination!
ReplyDeleteI recently made pesto with cashews! Pine nuts are just TOO expensive!!!
