Celery Pesto

 Celery Pesto 

I friend of mine was over and was looking at all the pesto i have in the Fridge and she asked about this one.  I like using this on fish or as an addition to other sauce.  I call it my little taste of summer, its really easy to make, and is last for about to 6 months in the Fridge.

Ingredients

10 to 12 cups of Celery leaves

1 cup of Italian Parsley leaves

6 to 8 cloves of garlic

2 teaspoons Lemon zest

Olive Oil

Directions

Spin dry the leaves, i leave the stems on the leaves as well. 

Place the garlic and lemon zest in the food processor first and then pulse until a medium chopped.  You can drizzle in a bit of Olive oil to help the processor.

Place in a jar.

And cover with Olive Oil, about an inch above the Celery.

When you remove some to use always top off the Olive oil, if you do not the celery pesto will start to brown.
