Last week at Whole Foods I actually wondered if I could make a pesto out of the beautiful dandelion they had! And now you have answered my question! Instead I made a fantastic pesto out of fresh cilantro, fresh mint, garlic, fresh lemon juice, toasted pinenuts, and toasted walnuts. No cheese. It was delicious! I used it to coat a rack of lamb! Next day on pasta!

Pinenuts are expensive here too, but available, and you can get relatively good ones at the Armenian/Middle Eastern markets.

We are big pesto fans. Alas, pine nuts are almost impossible to come by. In fact all nuts but macadamia are prohibitively expensive. Macadamia pesto anyone?
