Kale Pesto image

Steps:

  • Blanch the kale in boiling salted water for about 3 minutes and chill down in a cold water bath, drain and squeeze excess water.
  • Place into small work bowl of food processor and pulse to start breaking up the kale, add rough chopped garlic, process, add pine nuts, pulse several times.
  • Slowly add the olive oils and lemon juice, process until everything is broken down. It will never be real smooth.
  • Finally add the cheese and pulse a few times. Season with salt and pepper.
  • If serving with pasta grate a little extra cheese over and add EVOO to the hot pasta, toss with pesto, serve with additional grated cheese.
  • These are the basics of my recipe and the way that I prefer it, but you can add more garlic, lemon, or oil if you like.

  • Make the pesto: In a food processor, add the peeled garlic cloves and process until the garlic is minced. Add the kale, hemp seeds, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Turn on the food processor and drizzle in the oil. Process until the pesto reaches your desired consistency, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary. Taste and add more lemon, salt or pepper if necessary. (You can thin out the pesto with more oil, but if you’re serving with pasta, keep in mind that you can also thin it out with reserved pasta cooking water.)
  • Cook the pasta (optional): Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, according to package directions. Reserve one cup cooking liquid before draining the pasta. Let the pasta and pasta water cool for a minute to make sure the high heat doesn’t damage the flax oil pesto.
  • If you intend to have leftovers, transfer the amount of pasta you think you’ll be eating immediately to a serving bowl and mix in pesto with splashes of cooking water. Otherwise, you can mix the pasta and pesto together in your cooking pot, adding splashes of cooking water as necessary. Keep in mind that you have diluted the flavor a bit with the cooking water, so taste and add more lemon, salt or a drizzle of olive oil as necessary.

SUPER KALE PESTO - FOOD AND COOKING BLOG
The flaxseed oil substantially ups the quantity of omega-3’s in the pesto. I could not identify the taste of flax in the pesto, which was a huge plus. The oil has actually made a few of my salad dressings taste extremely flax-y. The hemp seeds vanish into the pesto, too, leaving a happily nutty taste and some creaminess.
