Tat Soi and Basil Pesto
Do you know about tat soi? It's a very nutritious Chinese leafy green that blends up very well into a pesto along with some basil for traditional pesto flavor.
Equipment
- Food processor
Ingredients
- 2 cups tatsoi
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 cup fresh basil
- ¼ cup pine nuts or walnuts
- ¼ cup Parmesan or pecorino cheese grated
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil
- salt to taste
Instructions
- If you haven’t already, remove most of them stems from the leaves. Don’t worry about being too precise.
- Throw everything but the olive oil in a food processor.
- Turn it on and if you have the option to drizzle in the oil while the machine is running, add it slowly until the pesto is a spreadable consistency. If you don’t have the luxury of the feature, add one tablespoon of oil, blend, then add the rest as needed.
- Salt to taste or add a little more cheese.
