    So, what should you know about our king?

    For the start the word “basil” derives from the Greek work “basileus” which means “KING”.

    If that is not enough some people called basil the “royal herb”.

    Storage

    1.In a Jar in the fridge – Fill a jar to the top. Drizzle a little olive oil over the top and seal closed to keep pesto green.

    You can keep it in the fridge for about 2 weeks if you continue to cover the top with olive oil.

    2. Ice cube tray – place basil pesto into ice cube tray and freeze. Then use frozen pesto cubes and store in plastic freezer bags.

    You can keep in the freezer for up to 6 months.

    I hope you enjoy this post and you are inspired to make it yourself.

    Special Comment

    Be aware that this pesto is full of the garlic. And I mean FULL!!!

    I use sometimes 15 cloves of garlic in this recipe. (yes, I know but I believe garlic is good for you…)

    And I also don’t use Parmesan cheese or pine nuts.

    I like simple combo of the garlic, the olive oil and the king basil.

    If you are still questioning my recipe please DON’T!

    Healthy is good for you. Your body and your soul will say:THANK YOU!
