      Recipe is created for
      TM 5
      If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Tip

I purchased a packet of rocket seeds 7 years ago for $6 and sprinkled them in my veggie patch. I have not purchased rocket since. It continually self seeds, same with parsley. Both are almost at the stage of being 'weeds' in my garden, they pop up everywhere. I'm not complaining, there is always a jar of pesto in our fridge.

Serve pesto with pasta or zucchini noodles. Use as a dip or spread on toast as a butter replacement. A lovely addition to salads.
