How to Make almond arugula pesto

Chef John from Food wishes shows the steps to make almond arugula pesto. An excellent summary is given below. Take a bowl of salted water and boil it. Add the arugula leaves (try to find bigger leaves for strong aroma) to the water and let it boil. Transfer the leaves to ice water and squeeze it out to get it ready. Use a blender and add some cloves, raw almond, olive oil and the leaves into it. Blend it for about two minutes, but do not over blend it. Transfer the blend to a bowl. Finally add some salt to taste and serve. Follow Chef John's steps and try making your own delicious almond arugula pesto.
