PESTO

1 large bunch of carrot or parsley greens
50 g walnuts or pine nuts
1 clove of garlic
50 g grated Parmesan
pinch of salt
pinch of ground black pepper
Extra panenský olivový olej

Instructions

1
Thoroughly wash the vegetable greens (carrot or parsley), dry them, and remove tough stems. Roughly chop the leaves.
2
You can briefly toast the nuts (walnuts or pine nuts) in a dry pan for a more intense flavor. Peel the garlic.
3
Place all ingredients (greens, nuts, garlic, Parmesan) into a blender or mortar. Gradually add olive oil and blend or crush until the desired paste consistency is achieved.
4
Season the finished pesto with salt and pepper. If it's too thick, add a little more oil. Serve with pasta or on a baguette.

Pesto from vegetable greens is a great way to use the whole vegetable and avoid waste. It tastes great with fresh pasta, on toasted bread, or as a seasoning for soups. Store in the refrigerator in a sealed jar covered with a layer of oil. Enjoy!
