Notes
- Want to make just parsley pesto? Great, simply replace the arugula with parsley.
- What about arugula pesto? Eliminate the parsley and use double the amount of arugula.
- A food processor is best for crushing herbs. A small bullet blender will work but might take longer and be difficult.
- Try not to overprocess the pesto in the food processor. This can cause the olive oil to turn bitter.
