Directions:
- Heat light cream, salt and pepper over medium-low heat, allow to come to a simmer while working on the basil.
- Place basil, garlic, nuts, and cheese in food processor and blend until almost smooth.
- Add olive oil in thin stream until emulsifies, while scraping the sides down to blend (emulsify: turns a lighter shade of green).
- By this time the cream will have come to a light simmer, add half of the cream to your basil mix and blend, until smooth, add this back to the remaining cream in the pan.
- Bring to a light simmer for 5 minute.
- Serve! :).
