- 2. Put the tomatoes in a bowl, cover with boiling water for about 40 seconds, then plunge into cool water. Peel off the skins. Crush the garlic.
- 3. Put the tomatoes, garlic, pepper, Parmesan cheese and parsley in a food processor and blend to a smooth paste. Gradually add in the extra virgin olive oil, drop by drop, then add in the basil and walnuts.
