Pesto Sauce

Salsas Bechamel, pesto y barbacoa

Ingredients:

  • 100 g basil leaves
  • 2 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 80 g raw pine nuts
  • 100 g of extra virgin olive oil
  • 50 g grated parmesan
  • 30 g grated Sardinian or Roman pecorino

Preparation:

  1. Place the cheeses cut into large pieces in the mixing jug. Grind at speed 10, 30 seconds until pulverized. Set them aside.
  2. Put the rest of the ingredients in the mixing jug and press the “turbo” for 3 seconds. Repeat the operation 3 times.
  3. Incorporate the cheeses and mix at speed 1, 10 seconds.
  4. If the sauce is too dry for what you need, mix in a little more oil

Tips…

  • You can store it for a long time in the fridge in a closed container – as long as it is covered with oil.
  • Some people add a little lemon juice to the sauce. In this case, keep in mind that its expiration time is shortened substantially.
