Pesto With Wild Garlic Leaf

Adding wild garlic leaves to pesto is a great way to give it an extra boost of flavor and nutrition. Wild garlic, also known as ramps, has a stronger, more pungent flavor than traditional garlic and pairs well with the richness of olive oil and the nuttiness of pine nuts.

Combine 100g of fresh wild garlic leaves, 50g of toasted pine nuts, 50g of grated Parmesan, and a pinch of sea salt in a blender. Add 100ml of extra virgin olive oil while blending until smooth. Adjust seasoning with lemon juice for a zesty kick. Toss with pasta, spread on bread, or drizzle over roasted veggies. Enjoy this vibrant, garlicky twist on classic pesto!
