Basil Pesto – The best King in your kitchen

Hello my dear readers!

Today my post is about the king in OUR life.

The BASIL

If you never pay attention to the basil, shame on you. You are totally ignorant.

basil pesto from the best food blog 5starcookies and cookie - Your Basil Pesto

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”.

What else should you know? Maybe the country of origin?

INDIA!

It is believed that basil has origins in India.

Since now you know the basic of the basil we can start our cooking show.

Let’s make the basil pesto.

BASIC BASIL KNOWLEDGE

1.Wash your basil with cold water. Never use warm water because it will wilt them.

2. Dry the basil well using a kitchen towel.

3. Chop the basil and garlic before you put them into food processor.

basil pesto from the best food blog 5starcookies and cookie - Add to pasta
basil pesto from the best food blog 5starcookies and cookie – Add to pasta

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!

Homemade Vegan Nutella – Kelly Clarkson please try it

Vegan Nutella Homemade from 5starcookies food blog-Real Nutella and Homemade Version Nutella
Vegan Nutella Homemade from 5starcookies food blog-Real Nutella and Homemade Version Nutella

I am sure your heard the story about Kelly Clarkson. She has been accused of “child abuse” by online commenters

after she posted a video showing her daughter trying Nutella for the first time.

Kelly is a criminal isn’t she?

Can you believe that somebody can write the following comment:

“Giving food like this to a child is child abuse”.

Oh, my God where is this world going? Are we all crazy people?

How can anybody be against Nutella?

How????

As I was trying to calm myself down I started to think like Kim Jong-un?

If I only had a nuclear weapons ….well, let’s not go there.

Calm down Nutella nation, I am not that crazy. I do love Nutella but I value “world peace” the MOST.

And because of that I started to think about all people who don’t like sugar and who count calories like obsession religion.

How can I exist with them? After all “world peace”  or “peace on earth” is an ideal for all of us.

So, I started think like a little rabbit. Let’s make it vegan.

Yes, dear Nutella nation, let’s make the homemade Vegan Nutella.

How it is the same or different  to real Nutella…well, you be the judge.

Now, what do we need? What kind of ingredients we need to buy.

First of all, you will need the king of this post. It is called the HAZELNUT.

Let me repeat ….we need

1.HAZELNUT!

The other ingredients are:

2.Icing Sugar (yes, I know! Have you heard the word “compromise”. We all need to do that.

Never mind which group you belong to)

3.Cocoa Powder

ACTION MODE

Ingredients:

1 and 1/2 cup hazelnuts

1 cup icing sugar

1/2 cup cocoa powder

2 Tbsp coconut oil

1 and 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

3/4 cup almond milk

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Spread 1 and 1/2 cup hazelnuts, in a single layer, evenly over a baking tray.

Bake for 10 min.

Let the hazelnuts cool for 5 to 7 minutes. because you will need to touch them.

Place the hazelnuts in a clean tea towel and gently rub together. The skin will be removed.

If you have some little, stubborn skin that does not want to cooperate use a small knife to show them who is the boss.

But remember, be gently. Try not to heart yourself or stubborn hazelnuts.

Now, if you have hazelnuts ready the rest of the recipe is really a piece of cake.

Find your most powerful man called the food processor or blender.

Add all your hazelnuts into blender, add 1 cup icing sugar, cocoa powder, coconut oil, vanilla extract and almond milk.

Blend until smooth.

Find your prettiest jar because that will be a home for our homemade Nutella.

Pour the vegan Nutella spread into a air-tight container.

Keep it in the fridge.

Enjoy!

So, what is the difference between homemade vegan Nutella and store-bought Nutella?

They say “A picture is worth a thousand words”.

Just look the picture and be the judge…You can pretend to be judge Judy or judge Jeanine. It is your choice.

Anything else…

Well, yes, just one more thing.

I do love Kelly Clarkson. Not just her music but for the fact that she share Nutella with her baby.

I think it is the best gift you can give to your child. Your friends or your family.

If you disagree with me…I feel sorry for you.

Enjoy your homemade vegan Nutella and SHARE!
