The Golden Rule
"Never drown your pesto in low-quality oil. The olive oil is half the flavor profile, so use something you would actually enjoy dipping crusty bread into."

Chef's Notes
Sun-dried tomatoes pack an incredible punch of umami, so treat them with the respect they deserve. Balancing the oil from the jar with fresh olive oil keeps the flavor complex rather than one-note.
Pro Tip
Always toast your walnuts! Raw walnuts taste like sadness and cardboard; toasted walnuts taste like luxury and triumph.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Dropping the entire jar of sun-dried tomatoes and oil into the food processor at once, resulting in a baby-food puree instead of a glorious, textured pesto.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Oh, a pesto without basil? How daring! Next, I suppose you’ll be making a soup without water.
The Culinary Science
Blending oil with water-based ingredients creates an emulsion, but because sun-dried tomatoes are dehydrated, this pesto acts more like a suspension, relying on olive oil to coat every particle for maximum flavor delivery.
