2. Wash and pat dry.

3. Place the cilantro and parsley in a blender with the remaining ingredients.

4. Blend at low speed, stoppng often to smash down the ingredients as they combine.

5. Turn up speed and blend thoroughly.

6. Place in a storage container, taste and adjust salt, and top with a little oil as you would pesto.
