Instructions

  1. Chop garlic scapes. 
  2. Measure herbs.
  3. Add everything to food processor bowl, except olive oil.
  4. Process until ingredients are combined and quite finely textured.
  5. Stream in olive oil until a smooth sauce is formed. Start with 1/2 cup olive oil. If you would like the sauce creamier, continue to add the rest of the olive oil until desired texture is obtained.
