Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Pine nuts, garlic, extra virgin olive oil, salt, pepper (both black and white pepper are acceptable).

   

2. 2 Place the Italian basil in a vegetable dehydrator and wash with clean water. After washing, pour away the water, cover the lid and press it two or three times to drain. (Reference)

   

3. 3 After step (2), put Italian basil on the spare paper towel (or dry it directly). (Reference)

   

4. 4 After step (3), put a piece of paper towel on it, and then use your hands to gently press it to let the water absorb. (Reference)

   

5. 5 After removing the moisture, dry on paper towels. (Reference)

   

6. 6 After step (5), if there is still moisture, wipe it with paper towels or place it in a container to dry and set aside. (Reference)

   

7. 7 Place the Italian basil, pine nuts, garlic, salt, and pepper in a mixing container in sequence, then pour in the olive oil and mix with a blender. (Although it is necessary to add cheese powder, since it is not easy to store, cheese powder is not added here. If you want to eat it immediately, you can add it at your own discretion.)

   

8. 8 Stir evenly.

   

9. 9 Pour into the spare container. (If you are not using it immediately, store it in the refrigerator. It is best to use it up as soon as possible. Just add cheese after cooking.)
