50 grams raw cedar nuts
2 fresh garlic cloves
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese

Preparation

1 Some people prefer to mix all of the ingredients in a bowl and mash them by hand. 2 But the easier way is to put them in a high speed blender or food processor and process until everything is well combined. 3 Just chop the garlic cloves before adding them to the blender or food processor. 4 So,fist of all,add all of the ingredients without grated parmesan cheese and extra virgin olive oil to high speed blender or food processor. 5 Blend well until the mixture is homogenized. 6 After that,stir in the grated parmesan cheese. 7 And finally pour the extra virgin olive oil while stirring by hand. 8 And that's it.You just made your own classic Pesto Genovese.
