We took our first
harvest from our basil plants on Sunday and were really surprised by the volume of basil we got off our plants! I did the harvesting - and Thor did the actual cooking in the kitchen (that was the original deal. Thor wanted "tons" of basil plants so he could make enough pesto to freeze for the entire winter. All I have to do is keep the little buggers alive and he does the rest of the work. Good deal for me!)
Here is Thor with an ice-cube tray full of pesto to freeze. I think we have at least two or three more jars in the freezer too. We ended up with about 6 cups of pesto this time around. Yum! Thor uses the pesto recipe out of
Cook's Illustrated - The New Best Recipe.
