I use broccoli because it lends a fresh, earthy, and richer taste than pesto made with only basil. This can be substituted with other fresh vegetables and herbs (or a mix of them) like basil, spinach, kale, arugula, garlic scapes, cilantro, carrot tops, parsley, ramps, or mint.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>(2) Basil.<\/strong> About 1.5 ounces weight. Pesto is traditionally made with basil, but you can substitute some or all of it with other vegetables and herbs (see Note 1 above).<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>(3) Parmesan Cheese.<\/strong> About 2 ounces weight. I use finely grated parmesan that has a sandy or almost powdery texture (not shredded), available in pre-grated bags in the refrigerated section of U.S. grocery stores. This can be substituted with similar cheeses like pecorino romano or asiago.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>(4) Pine Nuts.<\/strong> You can substitute with sunflower seeds, pistachios, almonds, or walnuts. As expected, the flavor is going to be a little different than if you used pine nuts, but the resulting pesto will still taste great.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>(5) Lemon Juice.<\/strong> This is about 1 large lemon&#8217;s worth of juice.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>(6) Food Processor.<\/strong> I recommend using a large capacity food processor for the job \u2014 I use a 14 cup bowl which fits all of the ingredients. If you have a smaller food processor, simply process in batches until the volume has decreased sufficiently to mix everything together. The recipe yields 2.5 to 3 cups of pesto sauce, so your food processor needs to be at least that size, plus room to mix. If you don\u2019t want to make that much pesto, you can proportionally halve the ingredients.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>(7) Uses For Pesto.<\/strong> Pesto can be used room temperature, cold, or heated. It can be a spread for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savorytooth.com\/keto-pizza\/\">low carb pizza<\/a>, a topping for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savorytooth.com\/pan-seared-salmon\/\">pan-seared salmon<\/a> or other fish, or a pasta sauce for zucchini or spaghetti squash &#8220;noodles.&#8221; It can also be used as a dip or salad dressing. I love pairing it with quick skillet dinners to provide a burst of flavor, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savorytooth.com\/pesto-shrimp\/\">pesto shrimp over cauliflower mash<\/a>.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>(8) Storage.<\/strong> Store pesto in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, or in the freezer for long term storage. Pesto will darken over time; you can avoid this by covering the surface of the pesto with some olive oil. If freezing, you can freeze pesto individually in ice cube trays, making it convenient to grab a small amount as needed (1 ice cube is about 2 tablespoons). Once frozen, you can transfer the pesto cubes to a resealable bag. Alternatively, you can scoop pesto onto a baking sheet, spread the sauce to about 1\/4 inch thick, and freeze. When you need some pesto, you can break off a small piece and it will defrost quickly since it\u2019s very thin.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>(9) Flavor Additions.<\/strong> This recipe is very forgiving and you can mix in extra ingredients you may have on hand, like jalape\u00f1os, sun-dried tomatoes, or avocado.<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n<a id=\"photos-and-tips\"><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6331,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3246,1431,1962],"tags":[1963,1964,49,16,2702,19,1508,18,1969,477,484,1427,278],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.3 -
