RUGUL PESTO
2 cups packed fresh arugula leaves
1 cup packed basil leaves
½ cup packed Italian parsley leaves
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup pine nuts (pignoli)
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
¾ cup olive oil
Place all ingredients, except oil in large bowl Black & Decker® Food Processor
fitted with cutting blade. Cover and process on HIGH until smooth, about 1
minute. Stop occasionally to scrape down sides of bowl. Remove pusher from feed
chute and drizzle oil in an even stream into processor. Continue to process until
mixture is smooth.
Makes about 1½ cups.
Note: If desired, substitute 2 cups packed baby spinach leaves for arugula.
P STRy CRUST
1 cup unsifted all-purpose flour
½ tsp. salt
¼ cup shortening
2 tbsp. cold butter or margarine, cut into small pieces
2 to 4 tbsp. ice water
Position metal blade in large workbowl bowl of Black & Decker® Food Processor.
dd flour, salt, shortening and butter. PULSE 3 or 4 times, for about 3 to 4 seconds
each, until mixture is crumbly.
With processor running, drizzle in just enough water through the small feed chute
until mixture pulls away from sides of bowl and forms a loose ball.
Remove workbowl from processor; remove blade. Turn dough out onto lightly
floured work surface. Gently shape dough into ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and
refrigerate for at least 20 minutes. (If storing longer, allow dough to rest on work
surface for 15 minutes before rolling out.) Roll out to a circle 2 inches larger than
the inverted pie plate to be used.
Transfer pastry to pie plate. To bake empty, pierce generously with fork. Bake at
425˚F (218˚C) until golden, about 12 minutes.
Makes one, 9-inch (23 cm) pie crust.
