2. To make the pesto, combine the basil, nuts, cheese, garlic, lemon juice, and spices in a food processor. With the machine running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. Continue until the mixture is well blended but still has some texture.

4. Store leftover pesto in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. You can also freeze pesto in an ice cube tray. When frozen, pop out into a freezer bag, then you can thaw only as much as required.
