Ingredients:
-1 cup fresh basil leaves (4)
-3 cloves garlic (12)
-3 tablespoons pine nuts (12, but I had less, so was likely 10 tbsp)
-1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan (actually bought a wedge and used the full thing)
-Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
-1/3 cup olive oil - I used 1/4 cup x4 (1 cup)
Note: I used a big bag of basil, which contains 4 cups of basil leaves, so multiple x4. Should use the big cuisinart and do all at the same time. I did it in batches, which was very messy.
Directions:
1. Toast pine nuts (don't burn)
2. Rinse and pick off basil leaves
3. Grind up the Parmesan cheese wedge solo instead of grating (was just faster)
4. Add the pine nuts, basil leaves, garlic (salt & pepper forgot last time)
5. Drizzle in olive oil while emulsifying.
6. Divide into 4 batches. I froze the other 3 in a bowl with the saran wrap touching.
