Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    I came back here, this time to use walnuts with my garden basil because, during a recent stop at my grocery store, I laughed out loud at the price of a small package of pine nuts....crazy! This version is very good....I just might be a convert.

    A good, classic pesto (perhaps smoother in texture than some others I've made) destined for my freezer in 1 tbsp portions.
