Pesto, Broccoli "greene On Greens" Recipe
Yield: 212 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
4 cup: Broccoli flowerets, from 1 1/2 lb broccoli
1/2 cup: Basil leaves, fresh coarsely chopped
2: Garlic cloves roughly chopped,
1/4 cup: Pine nuts,
1/2 tsp: Salt, Kosher, coarse
1/4 tsp: Pepper, black freshly ground
1/2 cup: Oil, olive
1/2 cup: Cheese, Parmesan
Directions:
Place broccoli in the container of a blender or food processor. Add
the basil, pine nuts, garlic, salt and pepper and oil. Process until
smooth. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cheese. To serve, toss
into warmed buttered pasta.
This pesto can be kept refrigerated in a tightly covered jar for a
week. It may also be frozen, but then it is best not to stir in the
cheese until after defrosting.
Makes enough pesto for 8 to 10 servings.
Broccoli is one of the vitamin-high Brassicas (4,5000 units vitamin
A, 481 milligrams potassium and 158 milligrams calcium per stalk). It
is also happily low in calories, a scant 40 per cupful. This
fortuitous happenstance gives a chef some license. Witness this
broccoli pesto sauce to drench over yards and yards of buttered pasta.
