Pesto - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 c. fresh basil leaves, lightly pressed
1/2 to 1 c. olive oil
4 cloves garlic
2/3 to 1 c. Parmesan or asiago cheese
Preparation
-
Blend basil leaves, garlic and enough oil to process until liquified.
Remove from blender container to refrigerator or freezer bowl.
Add grated cheese and mix well.

I use ice cube tray and transfer pesto cubes to plastic bag.
Remove 1 or 2 cubes when needed and thaw at room temperature.

Freeze without cheese.
