- Spatula
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh Basil
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
- 1/2 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1/3 cup Pine Nuts
- 3 cloves Garlic

- Start by pulsing the basil leaves and pine nuts a few times in your MasterChef Table Blender
- Add Parmesan and garlic and pulse several times more. Make sure to clear the sides of the blender with your spatula.
