I'm not a big fan of basil, so I wasn't sure if I would like this pesto oil. But I was pleasantly surprised! The flavor is very mild and nutty, and it's not at all overpowering.

This recipe is a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try using less oil next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pesto oil turned out really bitter. I think I might have used too much basil.

This pesto oil is a great way to use up extra basil. I always have a bunch of basil on hand, and this is a great way to use it up before it goes bad.

This pesto oil is a great way to add flavor to grilled chicken or fish. I simply brush it on before grilling, and it comes out perfectly moist and flavorful.

I'm not usually a fan of pesto, but this oil has changed my mind. It's so light and flavorful, and it doesn't have that heavy, oily texture that I usually associate with pesto.

I love how easy this pesto oil is to make. I always have fresh basil on hand, so it's great to have a recipe that lets me use it up. The oil is also very shelf-stable, so I can make a big batch and use it for weeks.
