I had a hankering for pesto pasta and thought I’d try a little experiment. I threw a couple of cloves of garlic and a handful of pine nuts in a pot, submersed them in olive oil and cooked/poached them for 15 minutes on my lowest output burner on the lowest setting.
I let the mix cool for a few minutes while I cleaned and washed the basil. It all went in a food processor and was pureed until smooth.
The only thing I would change would be to wait until the oil is cold, before making the pesto. When I combined the ingredients, the oil was still hot and partially cooked the basil. It was delicious, but not as fresh tasting as “raw” pestos.
