Скачать или смотреть A lovely Spring foraging activity to try!

A wonderful Spring activity for you to have a go at if you get the chance!

⚠️While wild garlic is a pretty beginner-friendly plant to forage, always make sure you do your research and know for certain THAT is what you're picking. (The smell should be a pretty obvious giveaway, but there are a couple of lookalikes that you do NOT want to eat!)⚠️

Once you've gathered plenty of lush leaves, give them a rinse in some clean water and allow to dry off, then use them in the below recipe for easy and super delicious homemade pesto! 🤤

~~~~~~~~~~~
INGREDIENTS:

200g garlic leaves (clean and dry)
70g toasted almond flakes (or other nut of choice)
70g grated Parmesan or roughly chopped if using a food processor
1 and a half tspn salt
Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
150ml olive oil

~~~~~~~~
METHOD:

Whizz all the ingredients together in a blender/food processor but reserve about 30ml of the olive oil.
Once blended place in sterilised jam jars and cover the top with a little more olive oil to keep out the air.
Screw on the lid and store in the fridge.
