Autumn Cure #2 Angèle's Arugula Pesto
THE SUPER (ANTIOXIDANT) ARUGULA PESTO
Angèle shares her essential recipe for arugula and almond pesto:
For 4 people
Preparation: 10 minutes
Ingredients :
200g of arugula
100g whole almonds
120g grated parmesan cheese
2 cloves of garlic
20cl of camelina oil
Pepper from the mill
Preparation :
1. Toast the almonds in a pan for a few minutes, turning them over occasionally. Let them cool. You can also soak them overnight to release all their benefits.
2. Rinse and spin dry the arugula and add the garlic, almonds, and oil to the bowl of your blender. Blend on high speed until smooth; you can add a little water if necessary. Add the Parmesan cheese at the end if desired.
3. To preserve your pesto for longer, you can quickly blanch the arugula leaves in boiling water. In this case, bring a small pot of water to a boil and immerse the arugula for about 2 minutes, then rinse it under cold water to stop the cooking.
4. Enjoy this green pesto with delicious fresh spaghetti or simply on Nordic seeded bread with a few cucumber slices!
