This recipe is a simple twist on pesto. It uses sweet peas as the base with Sage providing an aromatic taste profile. It also uses Ground Hemp Seed as a substitute for pine nuts. It can be prepared with or without cheese.
Combine Miso paste with water and bring to boil, reduce to simmer and add peas, mixing to combine flavor.
Place mixture into food processor, adding washed Sage leaves, garlic, and hemp seeds. Pulse until blended well. With motor running slowly pour in Olive Oil in a thin stream until incorporated. Season with salt, pepper, cayenne to taste. The peas are very sweet so you may wish to add more spices to taste. I often add a bit of Herbes de Provence too.
Optionally add in ground cheeses with a little more olive oil.
