Ingredients
 

  • 3 oz (80 g) wild garlic
  • ¼ cup (40 g) pine nuts
  • ½ cup (40 g) parmesan
  • ¼ cup (50 g) olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • more olive oil to conserve

Instructions
 

  • Toast the pine nuts for a few minutes in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Wash the wild garlic thoroughly with water and dry with a salad spinner.
  • Add all ingredients into a food processor (an immersion blender works too) and blend until you have a chunky pesto. Blend more if you like it smooth, or less if you like chunky pesto!
  • Transfer the pesto into a clean jar and cover with more olive oil to keep it longer.

Notes

Store it in a cool and dark place, in the refrigerator, or in a cold cellar.
To make it last as long as possible, you should cover the pesto with more olive oil every time you use it. 😉
