- I just love pesto, and bear leeks are just perfect in a pesto, this is how i do it...
- Wash about 100 gms of bear leeks, and pound them with about 100 gms of olive oil, add in more olive oil if you like a thin sauce, but i would really leave it as it is...you could also use a mixer to cut fine...the pestle would be just fine otherwise, this way you will have a semi thick paste and it doesn't get too fine like in a mixer.
- Get the bear leek paste out and pound in 100 gms of cashew nuts, well pine nuts would do too, but Cashew nuts gives the sauce a very crunchy texture, again, do not pound too fine.
- Now mix in your bear leek paste with your pounded Cashewnuts, add in 100 gms of grated sheep milk cheese, now you could also use the regular parmesan but any spanish sheep cheese is just as wonderful, add in a pinch of salt and pepper and some olive oil for your desired texture.
- Voila, great with some Penne or the usual Spaghetti.
