Hi Sarah,

I freeze pesto in freezer safe glass or plastic containers. Fresh pesto is best consumed within a week and should be kept in the fridge. I haven’t tried to JAR it for a longer shelf life. I assume that shop bought jars have some sort of preservative in them.

That last question was . . . Do you have any idea how to JAR pesto?

Thanks!
Sarah

Hello!

Can you tell me what you freeze the pesto in? How long can it stay in the freezer? Do you have any idea on how to pesto?

Thanks!

Sarah

Hi Vesna

I have made tonnes of your pesto recipe as it is great!! I have not roasted the pine nuts first before and use to add pepper, but yours is much better.
Thanks

Now I feel confident about what to do with some of the basil growing overboard in my vege patch! I’ve been using it in sugo, salads & stir fries, but have never been game to attempt pesto. I thought there must be some mystery to it. The fabulous photos & clear guidance make it seem easy. Many thanks.
