For the pesto, put the garlic in the food processor with a cup of walnuts and blend; work in batches.

  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Add the basil a little at a time, a sprinkle of salt and pepper with each addition, then about a cup of shredded Parmesan.

Taste and add salt and pepper. A quarter cup of water may be added to smooth it further.

Store the extra pesto in an airtight container covered with a thin layer of olive oil to keep it green.
