Making Pesto

Brian was so pleased when he was selected to appear on the BBC cooking show Master Chef, but he is now rather concerned - he thought he had applied to be a contestant...

 

Pesto is a generic term for anything made by pounding. The word pestle derives from an old verb meaning to pound or crush.

 

For Macro Mondays theme 'Tool'. This image shows my very small mortar and pestle used for grinding spices.

 

No snails were crushed, ground up or otherwise harmed in the making of this image.
