Ingredients:


4 ounces hazelnuts

2 cloves garlic -- peeled

1 teaspoon salt

2 large handfu fresh parsley -- washed and dried

1 cup extra virgin olive oil

1 pound thin -- flat pasta
 

Preparation / Directions:


Using a mortar and pestle, pound the hazelnuts with garlic, salt, and parsley, adding a few drops of oil. (The pesto can also be made in a food processor, but the consistency should not be too smooth.) Pound ingredients into a paste, transfer to a larger container, and then slowly stir in the remaining oil. Cook the pasta al dente and coat with pesto sauce.
