做香蒜酱
- Remove stems from basil leaves.
- Put the basil, garlic, and pine nuts or almonds into the bowl of a food processor and pulse it a few times to chop them up.
- Then, turn the food processor on and slowly pour the olive oil through the feeder tube to blend with the chopped herbs and nuts.
- Process until all ingredients are fully blended, stopping the food processor to scrape down the sides occasionally to get it all mixed.
- Turn off the food processor, and add the salt and Parmesean, then pulse a few times to blend.
