Ingredients
  • 2 cups whole walnuts, lightly toasted
  • 1 cup (heaping) sundried tomatoes, packed in oil, roughly chopped
  • 2 small to medium-sized cloves of garlic, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
  • Few twists freshly ground black pepper
  • Pinch kosher salt/sea salt/Sel de Guerande
  • Good quality extra virgin olive oil, as needed
Instructions
  1. In the bowl of a food processor, add walnuts, sundried tomatoes, garlic, thyme, cheese, black pepper and salt. Pulse several times to combine. Stream in olive oil until the mixture comes together. Do not overmix! You want a more coarse, pebbles-on-the-beach texture- this is not a puree!
  2. Serve with toasted baguette, bagel or pita chips.
