For a richer flavor, toast the walnuts lightly before chopping. Adjust the amount of garlic according to your preference. This pesto can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle kick.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a mortar, combine garlic and salt. Using a pestle, grind into a smooth paste (5-8 minutes).
02
StepAdd walnuts to the garlic paste. Grind until desired consistency is achieved, either coarse or smooth (5-8 minutes).
03
StepIncorporate parsley into the mixture. Grind gently to release its aroma and blend with the walnut and garlic (4 minutes).
04
StepPour in lemon juice and olive oil. Stir, mash, and emulsify until a thick, well-blended mixture forms (8-10 minutes).
05
StepTaste and adjust seasonings as needed. If the pesto is too thick, add water, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
