1 c  Basil leaves
2 ts Garlic, minced
1/2 c  Olive oil
2 tb Pine nuts, chopped
1/8 ts Salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Puree all the ingredients in a blender or in a food processor. Or, if you
want to do it the traditional way, pound the basil leaves, garlic, salt &
nuts together with a mortar & pestle & then beat in the olive oil. Use in
soups or toss with hot pasta & serve as a main dish. Smaller quantities
make an ideal appetizer. Will keep in the refrigerator or will freeze.
