Toast the pine nuts in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for enhanced flavor and texture. Watch them carefully, as they burn easily. Use good-quality, oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes for the best flavor. If using dry-packed, rehydrate them in hot water for about 15 minutes before chopping. For a richer flavor, consider adding a splash of white wine to the skillet after cooking the garlic, allowing it to reduce slightly before adding the other ingredients. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. The amount of red pepper flakes can be adjusted to your preference.
