Wild Garlic Pesto

Chefs are known for keeping their recipes under lock and key, but this recipe is a common request from our guests.

As we step into wild garlic season, this foraged ingredient grows locally and can often be found in our Station Road menus this time of year.  

 

Wild Garlic foraging

Ingredients

  • 100g     wild garlic leaves (washed and dried)
  • 1           clove of fresh garlic
  • 50g       skinless toasted hazelnuts/pumpkin seeds/pine nuts
  • 60g       parmesan cut into small cubes

Wild Garlic Pesto

You could replace half the wild garlic with rocket for a more peppery taste.
