soupereasy from Wanaque, N.J
I give this a 2 because the Green Olive Pesto is rather nice.
Another AJ Soupereasy project.
Far too much mustard for our taste, 1 tbl of dijon and 2 tbl of black mustard seeds. (We subbed brown)
Really overwhelmed the salmon, which should have been the star.
The olive pesto is quite nice, though we did reduce the onion a bit. Recipe calls for 1/2 a red, our red might have been a bit large. The ratio of onion to olive seemed a bit much.
Recipe did not call for toasting the pine nuts but as AJ and I always do it, seemed silly not to take the raw taste out of the mix.
The olive pesto will be lovely tossed with pasta or on crostini.
