Ingredients

    7 oz Basil
    0.75 oz Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese
    0.75 oz Gruyere Cheese
    1.5 oz Pine Nuts
    3 large cloves Garlic
    0.5 c Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Directions

Remove the basil leaves from the stems and clean thoroughly. Finely grate the two cheeses.

Combine all ingredients except the cheeses into a food processor and finely blend into a paste. Add the cheese and pulse to mix. Do not over mix at this point as the heat from the blades can melt the cheese.

Store in a plastic container with a sheet of plastic wrap against the surface of the pesto to prevent browning.

Makes 2 cups; 2 T per serving.
