Question by joshblewis: How do i make My pesto not have a spicy taste?
first time i tried i used parsley cilantro walnuts parmasan cheese 2 cloves of garlic and olive oil. came out tasting really spice not very good
second time i used just parsly and a similar recipe thinking it was the cilantro that made it spicy. still came out spice and grose. i know i should be using basil but it is expensive
third try i use a little basil sun dried tomatoes packed in olive oil. 4 garlic cloves walnuts parmasan cheese. still came out with a similar flavor.
the only thing i can think it is the garlic but i never known garlic to taste spice but it was the only ingredient that i think could be doing it. should i roast the garlic before?

basil is the best kind but the whole point of pesto is for it to be slightly spicy. maybe you just don’t like it
It is the garlic that is giving you that spicy taste. If garlic is old it has a tendency to get spicy or even hot. If garlic is fresh you get a smoother taste. No do not roast it just make sure you are getting fresh garlic and do not keep it long.
Yeah, it’s almost definitly the garlic (try taking a little nibble of a clove and it will burn your tongue. You could try roasting or chopping it first and sauteing it in a little oil or just adding 1/2 clove at a time.
garlic has a VERY strong flavor and it can easily overpower other flavors in foods.
What type of pesto was it? 4 cloves of garlic seems like it would make about 4-5 gallons of pesto.
Parsley is good for toning down garlic and onion flavors, and roasting the garlic would lighten it and give a ‘nuttier’ flavor. Garlic will ‘cook-out’ of a sauce and lose most of it’s strong flavor, but be careful of over-roasting it. Garlic can get very bitter when overcooked.
Its definitely the garlic, because in pesto the garlic is raw. Raw garlic has much more of a burn than cooked garlic.
Ergo, either decrease the garlic or saute it first.

basil or rocket is best
2 bunches picked basil
2tablespoons toasted pinenuts
4 cloves fresh garlic
100gms fresh parmesan
300 ml olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt
blitz in the food processor, pour into glass container, store in the fridge.
your walnuts might be bitter or rancid
no cilantro,that;s for rempah-asian pesto
dont roast the garlic
A basil plant cost .99 at Wal-mart. Pesto is usually about basil, pine nuts, garlic, oil and such. I’m a huge marinera fan, not so much for pesto. I don’t like oil, or nuts.
Don’t use the walnuts!
