almonds in pesto

[nigafool]

anyone do this? it's all i have and i don't want to go out.

if so should i toast them first or what

 

[Automatic Jack]

I would do it! Definitely toast them.

Pistachios are great for this.

 

[nigafool]

fuck you guys

im gonna do it anyway

edit: someone posted woo

 

[Killjoy]

get some pine nuts you fucking heathen

 

[nigafool]

ok aj even though you're a retard i'm basically taking your advice

 

[naptown]

this is a bad idea

 

[Kurayami]

Uh...

Almonds?

If you don't have fresh pine nuts, leave it.

This is like asking if you should replace the tomato in a red sauce with oranges because they're both round fruits.

 

[nigafool]

i think i'm not going to throw them in the food processor with the other shit though

i dont want them to turn into a paste

i'll just break them up by hand and toss them in after

i make pesto with walnuts or pecans all the time

not as traditional as pine nuts but just as good

i've just never tried almonds

i want to make a cheese omelet but i have no cheese

Then you make some pretty shitty pesto.

Walnuts in a pesto? That just sounds nasty.

 

[nigafool]

kura are you really trolling nut choices for pesto

 

[Kurayami]

Considering that you trolled me about a fucking herb for months upon months, I'm not sure you should be talking.

Why don't you ask the chefs at the "fancy" restaurant that you bus for? I'm sure they'd have some choice words about using something other than pine nuts.

You want it to be a paste...but let's face it, it's hard to fuck it up, coarse won't be bad.

 

[nigafool]

i actually stole this basil from a field i saw it growing in on my way home from the restaurant

i am a fuckin degenerate

it has the biggest basil leaves i've ever seen

some are a good 6-7" long

 

[nigafool]

You want it to be a paste

no way man i love chunky pesto

 

[Kurayami]

I'm not sure that I'd be taking culinary advice from a self-admitted middle aged pedophile that does most of his cooking in a microwave and has a shitty apartment full of particle board furniture from Ikea.

But that's just me.

Just because you do it doesn't make it right.

 

[nigafool]

i got some awesome shit for my kitchen from ikea

it's all metal stuff though, mostly ways to hang stuff so i can utilize my limited counterspace better
