I first tried pesto in a restaurant about 15 years ago and asked the chef what was in it. I love keeping my own jar of this on hand as it yields enough for a pound of pasta and is wonderful drizzled over tomatoes, boiled potatoes, or Italian bread.

Ingredients

2 cups fresh basil leaves
1 cup olive oil
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
0.5 cups pine nuts
2 cloves garlic , crushed
1 teaspoon salt
1 dash nutmeg

Instructions

1

Blend the basil, olive oil, Parmesan cheese, pine nuts, garlic, salt, and nutmeg in a blender until smooth. Use immediately or refrigerate until use.
