Notes

  • Rehydrate your raisins first by adding them to a small bowl, cover with water and microwave for 30-40 seconds. let sit, then drain before using.
  • You can leave the stems whole if you prefer - just make sure you trim the bottoms off first.
  • Use a really high quality extra-virgin olive oil for the best flavor.
  • If your garlic has green sprouts running throughout the clove, remove it first. 
  • Rehydrate your raisins first by adding them to a small bowl, cover with water and microwave for 30-40 seconds. let sit, then drain before using.
  • Be sure to toast your pine nuts for a few minutes in a dry skillet or in the oven. Watch so they don't burn!
