Classic Basil Pesto

8 Servings

2 garlic cloves
1/3 cup packed basil leaves, cleaned quickly and dried well
1 pinch coarse sea salt
1 tbsp pine nuts
2 tbsp freshly-grated pecorino cheese
5 -6 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
approx. 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Using a blender or food processor, puree all ingredients plus half (1/2) of the oil until well-combined.

Slowly drizzle in the remaining oil until you reach the desired consistency.

Use as you wish and store the remaining pesto in a tightly-covered container in the fridge for up to a week.
