Winter Pesto

1. Mince and mash the garlic to a paste with salt.

2. In a processor or blender, puree spinach with parsley, oil, walnuts, Parmesan, fennel and garlic paste.

3. The pesto keeps, covered with a thin film of olive oil and chilled, up to 2 weeks.

4. This makes enough to use with up to 2 ½ lbs of pasta.
