Cilantro/Coriander Pesto
- 1/2 cups Pine Nuts/walnuts
- 1/2 cups Parmesan Cheese, Grated
- 3 cloves Garlic, Smashed
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Fresh Cracked Black Pepper
- 1 Tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice Or White Wine Vinegar
- 1 bunch Fresh Cilantro/coriander, Chopped
- 1/2 cups Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Lightly toast the nuts if you like (I didnt).
- Add everything into a food processor with half the olive oil.
- Give it a couple of quick turns.
- Keep it turned on while adding the rest of the oil in a thin stream.
- Make a smooth paste.
- Keeps well in the fridge for at least 23 weeks.
- If you only want a small amount, store the rest of it in the freezer right away.
- If you are freezing, put it in a Ziploc bag and roll it into a disc, removing as much air as possible.
- Then seal the bag and pop it into the freezer.
- You can then take it out and break just the right sized piece when you need it.
