PISTACHIO PESTO

This is a slight change from the original pesto. Lemon zest keeps it lively. Pistachio's keeps it a little cheaper then pine nuts. If you don't like cilantro use all basil. I myself love cilantro. Serve over hot pasta, dollop of pesto in vegetable or chicken soup, use pesto instead of your favorite spread on your sandwich, top a pizza with it and spread some on salmon or chicken then bake.

  • Toast the pistachio nuts in a dry frying pan over medium-high heat until they are a light brown colour. Keep them moving to prevent burning.
  • Add basil leaves, Parmigiano Reggiano, garlic clove and a drizzle of oil to a pestle and mortar and grind until creamy.
  • Add the pistachio and grind until they start to break down into smaller chunks and combine. You should have a creamy yet slightly chunky consistency.
  • Drizzle the remaining olive oil and continue to grind until you have a creamy paste. We recommend leaving it a little rustic.
