Substitute this Scandinavian take on pesto wherever you might use basil pesto. It's particularly good with grilled fish or chicken.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes

- zest of 1 large lemon
- 1 tsp. salt
- 3/4-1 cup rapeseed or canola oil
Preparation:
Place walnuts and garlic in a food processor and process until finely chopped. Add fresh dill, lemon zest, and salt; process into a thick paste.
