Easy Wanut Basil Pesto

Directions

1. 1
   Wash the basil leaves and use a paper towel, etc.
2. 2
   to properly wipe the moisture.
3. 3
   Add all of the ingredients except for the basil leaves to a blender and mix until smooth.
4. 4
   Add the basil and continue to mix until smooth.
5. 5
   Basil leaves are easily damaged by heat.
6. 6
   When making a lot the blender will get hot, so adding the leaves last will help keep their aroma.
7. 7
   To store the paste, pour in about 1 cm of olive oil to the top.
8. 8
   This keeps it from oxidizing and changing color.
9. 9
   Additional Note: I wrote 3-5 g for the salt amount.
10. 10
    3 g is the regular amount, and 5 g gives it a strong saltiness, good for eating as-is with bread or potatoes.
11. 11
    Adjust the amounts as you see fit.
12. 12
    If adding powdered cheese, 3 g of salt should be enough.
