Yeah, Danny’s usually all about home repair, but this one came up at the right time! Kim whipped up a similar recipe the same day.

Tip:

As you know, basil doesn’t taste as good when allowed to flower. To keep them from blooming, and to keep the plants bushy, regular haircuts are in order. Haircuts mean harvest; harvest means basket full of basil; and basket full of basil means pesto! It’s a tough job, but somebody’s gotta do it.

Recipe:

  • 4 cups basil leaves
  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 2/3 cup pine nuts (or one small package)
  • 3-4 garlic cloves (1 teaspoon minced)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2/3 to 1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
