Garlic Mustard Pesto
Ingredients
- Garlic mustard leaves from the second year plant (washed and squeezed dry in your hand)
- Grated/ground parmesan
- Ground toasted Sunflower seeds
- Olive oil (not the light stuff, better something with a good strong flavor
- Salt (carefully, since the cheese is already salty!)
- Pepper
- Nutmeg
- Lemon juice
Instructions
- Grind/finely chop grated mustard leaves. I used a salsa maker and added olive oil to aid the grinding.
- Mix gm/oil, cheese and sunnies to taste and add nutmeg and pepper and maybe a little salt to taste and olive oil to get the right consistency.
- Finish with a good dash of good quality lemon juice. I found that the lemon juice really pulled the whole thing together.
