  • I'll have to try this with the pistachios! That sounds good. I've only used cashews and pine nuts. Like you, I don't care for salt much.

    I enjoyed watching this! RAD

  • @TheRadicalreels - Why thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

    I actually *love* salt, but let people salt their own food. Made this decision long ago after being served a dish with SO MUCH salt it really wasn't edible, even for me! Now the "no salt" is required - my blood pressure is marginally bad... :(

  • @MamboDogFaceOne I also have High Blood pressure! If I use salt, it's always sea salt. This Texas heat wave has taken it's toll on my Basil...  LOL

  • @TheRadicalreels - Sea salt has less effect on your BP? I use sea salt just because it's not processed to death, iodized etc. Interesting. This is a new thing to me (high BP) - any other tips on lowering / controlling it? besides cardio exercise - time to get back to the gym! :)

  • What a surprise to see a video from you! Marc should challenge you more often. This looks so good I can taste it from here, and I *like* the thought of pistachios. I'll have to try it with them.

  • @anmoose Well for one thing I gave up my old camcorder and finally found a nice little Cannon with video ability. It's SO much easier, you may actually see more action in the MamboDog court. I've been off so long I forgot how much I enjoy all my friends here - and now, I've been anmoosed, so I know it's going to be a good day!!

  • @Perroquet51 Sometimes it's necessary to oil it up so it's nice and smooth.

  • @hallbe Hi Ben! I made the last batch with cashews just for fun. That was good too! The pine nuts definitely have a distinctive flavor, but the pistaches are really close.

  • @lonewolf13scott Keep it under your hat! Or not, that could be a little messy...

  • Was that a secret recipe? SHHHHHHHH I wont tell
