Notes

STORAGE: This pesto will last for a year in the refrigerator when stored in an air-tight jar. After each use, pour some oil to cover the top layer before returning it to the refrigerator. This pesto also keeps very well in the freezer. However, if you want to freeze your pesto, do not add the lupin cheese or any other vegan cheese as it will separate while thawing. You could use an ice cube tray to freeze the pesto to form small cubes, then transfer to tin with a lid or a zip lock bag and thaw on a need-to-use basis.
