Pesto

Pesto

During our stay in El Salvador, I had a marvelous gardener. Together with him we transformed a small patch of the garden to a non-stoppable basil haven.  I had tons of basil leaves and started making pesto and also gave them to friends.

I do remember blending altogether:

Lots and lots of basil leaves
Anchovies
Parmesan Cheese
Pine nuts
Olive oil
Garlic


In this bottle, I do not have the pine nuts though. I have used the Thai fish sauce instead of anchovies.
