Simo and Cicci Recommend

You can store the lemon pesto in a sealed glass jar in the fridge for 2 days.

Since we will use both the juice and the zest of the lemon, it is very important to choose untreated and as organic as possible lemons.

You can also add parsley.

You can replace the pine nuts with blanched almonds or walnuts.

If you want to achieve an even more intense taste, you can replace the parmesan with good grated pecorino cheese. For a vegan version, simply omit any type of cheese or replace it with a non-dairy alternative.
