This Basil Vinaigrette is the vinaigrette that you didn’t know you needed. Save the pesto for pizza and pasta – use this to brighten everything else.

Garlic Scape and Radish Green Pesto

Posted on June 15, 2023 by melinmac

This pungent pesto retains its vibrant green color and freezes well. It’s intoxicating to pull it out of the freezer in the middle of the winter – the vivid green and the intense “eau de garlique” evoke the sights and smells of summer!

This aioli is fantastic with any roasted veg, but it’s especially good with roasted, charred carrots.

Posted on February 22, 2023 by melinmac
