💡 If you do not have pecorino Romano cheese, use additional Parmigiano-Reggiano as a substitute.Store leftover pesto in the fridge for up to one month in an airtight jar covered with olive oil to avoid oxidation.For a smoother texture, use a high-quality food processor instead of a mortar and pestle.
