How do I roast pine nuts for pesto? Thank you.?

Answer 1

You don't need to; you can use them as you get them from the store.

Answer 2

Pine nuts roast really quickly. I spread a single layer in a HOT non-stick frying pan and keep shaking it (like tossing a pancake but with smaller movements) The kernels will be lovely within a few minutes.

Answer 3

Dry non stick frying pan. Put the pine nuts in the pan and put on a hot heat. After about a minute shake the pan. Dont leave longer than about three minutes. Watch them carefully as they burn.

Answer 4

Turn on your oven to 250 degrees. Spread out the pine nuts on a cookie sheet, in a single layer. Toast 'em for about, oh, 8 minutes, then take a spatula or cake turner and turn them as best you can. Toast 'em for another 8 minutes, or until you smell the fragrance of pine nuts. Be careful to watch them so they don't burn.

Answer 5

You don't. According to the original Genoese pesto recipe all ingredients must be FRESH and RAW. And remember: there's no substitute for pine nuts - walnuts, cashews or anything else.
Buon appetito!

Answer 6

In a frying pan, no oil. Make sure it is hot and keep them moving around. About 4 minutes in a hot pan.

Dry fly them in a pan on the stove.
Don't worry about recipe measurements or ingredients too much either, try some pistachios in there too and some rocket

Answer 8
