Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups packed fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup pine nuts
1 garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2/3 cup olive oil
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Toast pine nuts on a cookie sheet in a 400°F oven for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. In a blender (I used food processor), pulse the basil, pine nuts, garlic, salt and pepper until finely chopped. With it still running, gradually add enough oil to form a smooth and thick consistency. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cheese. Season with more salt and pepper to taste.
