I do this one or my dandelion pestor fairly regularly. MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Roasted Pistachio Pesto Categories: Herbs, Nuts, Citrus, Cheese Yield: 16 Tablespoon 2 c (packed) fresh basil leaves 2 cl Garlic 1/4 c Roasted pistachios; more for - optional garnish 2/3 c Olive oil; as needed 1 tb Lemon juice 1/2 c Pecorino-Romano cheese; - shredded Salt ROASTED PISTACHIOS: Shell pistachios and set your oven @ 350ºF/175ºC. Spread the pistachios on a rimmed cookie sheet. They should be in a single layer for even roasting. Roast for 6 - 8 minutes, stirring halfway through, or until the pistachios are fragrant and lightly browned. PESTO: Place basil, garlic, and roasted pistachios into a food processor. Process until the mixture is smooth. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the food processor. Once smooth (there will still be some small chunks), slowly pour in the olive oil, lemon juice, and pecorino romano cheese while the food processor is running. Process until the mixture is smooth, again, you may need to scrape down the sides of the food processor. Season with salt, and serve immediately over pasta, toasted bread, use it as pizza sauce, etc! UDD NOTES: If you use store-bought shelled and roasted pistacios as I do you can skip the first part of the directions. I have used Grana-Padano in place of the Pecorino-Romano - but be warned it is somewhat milder and alters the flavour profile subtly.
