Sorrel Pesto image

There are so many soup recipes with sorrel, which grows like a weed in my garden, that I wanted to have something different. I think this is pretty good, it can be canned, and it can make a nice gift basket item. Found this on twosmallfarms.blogspot.com

Time 10m

Yield 1 cup, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups coarsely chopped fresh sorrel, ribs removed
1/3 cup packed fresh parsley leaves
2 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
1/3 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup pine nuts
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • In a food processor or blender puree the sorrel, the parsley, the garlic, the parmesan, the pine nuts and the oil, transfer the pesto to a jar with a tight fitting lid and chill it, covered. The pesto keeps, covered and chilled, for 2 weeks. Makes about 1 cup.
  • To use the pesto: For every pound of dried pasta cooking in a kettle of boiling water, stir together in a heated serving bowl 3/4 cup of the pesto and 2/3 cup of the hot cooking water. When the pasta is al dente, drain it in a colander, add it to the pesto mixture, and toss the mixture until the pasta is coated well. Vermicelli works very well with this recipe.

I don't like sorrel. Is there another herb I can use instead?

I'm allergic to nuts. Can I use something else instead of pine nuts?
