Oregano Verde

Oregano Verde

Oregano Verde is a delicious and light pesto that we’ve used on our new seasonal pizza, the Crust heirloom tomato upper crust pizza. This is also the perfect addition to pasta or on a bruschetta.

Ingredients

  • 40g (1/4 cup) pine nuts
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh oregano leaves
  • 2 small garlic cloves, cleaned and halved
  • 60g (3/4 cup) grated parmesan cheese
  • 150mls olive oil
  • ½ lemon squeezed
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pinch of cracked pepper
