Name: Summery Almond and Lemon Pesto Made in a Mortar and Pestle – KROK
Ingredients: 50g (approx. ⅓ cup) toasted almonds *with the skin on; Zest of 1 and ½ lemons, previously grated; 2 tbsp of Parmesan cheese, freshly ground (if aged Pecorino cheese is easy to find, give it a try too); 3 tbsp of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (the one I used is from Sicily and it’s very fruity, aromatic, and strong in flavor); 1 medium garlic clove; 1 or 2 tbsp of mineral water; Mortar and Pestle
