Directions
- Toast your Pine nuts in the oven for about 5-6 minutes at 300 degrees (this is where a small toaster oven comes really handy). If not you can toast them lightly in a small egg pan. Be watchful as they toast really fast and always keep moving them around.
- Now just toss all your basil leaves (stems too) in a food processor, the peeled garlic, the shaved parmesan, olive oil, lime juice and salt, and pulse 8 to 10 times.
- Pesto is ready!
