I was cleaning up the veranda this afternoon and decided that the basil was really getting out of hand again... So I chopped it all back, half way down, and brought the tops into the kitch.
Fill the blender with basil leaves and thinner stems
Add one cup olive oil
Add 2-3 cloves garlic
Add a handful of pine nuts
splash of salt and pepper
Grate a cup of fresh Parmesan cheese and dump it in.
Put on the lid and let 'er rip!
Instant Pesto! Cook up some curly pasta and pour it on. Some Italian sausages on the side just for the fat and protein. A glass of cheap red wine and a candle.
Romance...
