     Basil Pesto

Category   Sauces
Sub Category   None

Ingredients
2 cup Fresh Basil Leaves
1/4 cup toasted Pine Nuts
2 Garlic Cloves, Peeled
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Pepper
1/3 cup Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 cup Grated Parmesan
 

Instructions
In a blender, pulse the basil, pine nuts, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper until finely chopped. With the blender still running, gradually add enough oil to form a smooth and thick consistency. Transfer the pesto to a medium bowl and stir in 1/2 cup of cheese. Season the pesto with more salt and pepper, to taste. (The pesto can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
