1. First, soak the kelp noodles in a large bowl with warm water. Add the juice of 1 lemon and baking soda. Let stand for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the noodles are soft. Then drain and set aside to make the basil pesto sauce.
2. Add fresh basil, pine nuts, garlic (I roasted my garlic but feel free to use unroasted garlic), lemon juice, nutritional yeast, sea salt to a food processor or small blender and pulse/blend on high until the mixture forms a paste.
3. Add *grapeseed oil (sub for oil of your choice) a little at a time (pour in while the food processor is on, if possible) and just scrape the sides down as needed. Following that, feel free to add 1 Tbsp of water or lemon juice until you reach your desired consistency. You should have a thick but pourable pesto sauce. (If avoiding oil, sub the oil with veggie broth or just use all water.)
4. Do a taste test and adjust the flavor as needed, add more nuts for nuttiness, garlic for more garlic flavor, nutritional yeast for that cheesy flavor, lemon juice for that lemony flavor, and sea salt for overall flavor.
