Pea Shoot Walnut Perfecto Pesto |
Recipe from Oak Hill Farm
2/3 cups walnuts
1/2 garlic clove
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
1 cup Pea shoots (In season March & April)
3/4 cup olive oil (you may not use all...)
Salt and Pepper
Pasta of your choice. I prefer linguini.
Now go....
At 450 degrees - roast walnuts on cookie sheet, until just they are just browning...keep an eye on them. don't let them burn.
Add garlic and Pea shoots to blender or food processor. Process until smooth... Add toasted walnuts. Blend briefly. Don't process too much as walnuts will become too thick - cakey (if that's a word). Add Parmesan blend a bit more. Then gradually add olive oil until you reach a thick consistency - pesto like! Salt and Pepper to taste. Chew your food!
