Pesto
*from the kitchen of Ina Garten*
1/4 c. walnuts
1/4 c. pine nuts
9 cloves garlic
5 c. basil
1 t. salt
1 t. pepper
1 1/2 c. olive oil
1 c. Parmesan cheese
Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender except oil. Add oil in a steady stream as you process everything to bring together. According to the Barefoot Contessa, "air is the enemy of pesto," so the best way to preserve it is to add a layer of olive oil on top and freeze it. FWIW.
