Made this to use as a base on the Pizza Scone Rolls - very nice.

Browsing Tenina's new website this morning, saw this, grabbed my KIS book and whizzed it up. Several ingredients in it that I'm not keen on but I do have them on hand to use sparingly from time to time. I thought I'd make it for DD as they love this sort of thing but trying it with a cracker, I quite enjoyed it so I'll try it mixed through some pasta as well. I daresay it will keep well in the fridge for quite some time. There's enough for both of us, it makes roughly 2 cups.

Ooh, bad me, I forgot to review this.
We loved it. I may not have made it had I not tasted it at Tenina's class. It was a change from the usual cream cheese dip. I can't wait to try it with pasta.

Must make this again. Great recipe as I can't eat pine nuts that are in a lot of pesto recipes.
-
I spread some on SD toast and topped it with a poached egg for breakfast.

This pesto is really nice! Beautiful balance of flavours.
I didn't add the olives (I don't really like them so don't really buy them!) but still beautiful without!
I made it for New Year's Eve and we all enjoyed it. The following day it had solidified a little so I just whizzed it for a few seconds to loosen it.
I made the flour and duck fat tortillas (pg 29) to serve with it. YUM!

That's interesting blackwood. I see olives in a recipe and turn the page, especially for something like this in which I would have thought they were integral to the recipe.
-
Another good reminder. Thanks.
-
Judy I think you're right, they probably are integral in this recipe and would add another dimension to it...but we honestly thought it was beautiful and balanced without!
I was thinking about leaving out the anchovies (I'm not the biggest fan of them either) but decided to add a small amount just because leaving out the olives and anchovies might effect the taste too much.
I'm exactly the same with olive recipes...I normally just turn the page...but this recipe just jumped out and me and I wanted to make it! :)
Now to get through the rest of my bookmarked pages of recipes to try! Sticky notes everywhere! :-))
