Sage pesto with sunflower seeds

Ingredients for 1 servings:

• 80 g sunflower seeds
• 60 g sage
• 80 g Parmesan cheese in large pieces
• 5 cloves garlic
• 70 ml pumpkin seed oil
• 170 ml mild olive oil
• Olive oil to cover

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Add the listed ingredients, first without the oils, to the blender and process until smooth. Add the pumpkin seed oil and 100 ml olive oil and continue to process until a paste forms. Add more olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste. Pour into sterilized jars, cover with olive oil, and store in the refrigerator. Using the specified quantities, I got three jars of approximately 200 ml each. Note: I used a “Monsieur Cuisine” food processor, similar to a Thermomix, for the preparation. Of course, you can use any other suitable tool; the most flavor-preserving method is certainly using a large mortar and pestle and mortar.
