Instructions

  1. Add everything except the olive oil to a food processor.
  2. While the processor is running, slowly pour the olive oil through the feed tube in a steady stream.  Process until smooth.
  3. If needed, scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula and pulse a few times until everything is incorporated.
  4. Store in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • I used a 4 ounce package of basil from the grocery store and removed the stems, which left me with 3 packed cups of basil.
