- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- ½ tsp fine sea salt, plus more to taste

With the processor running, pour the olive oil in a slow, steady stream through the feed tube and process until the pesto is mostly smooth with a slightly textured consistency, about 20–30 seconds. Stop and scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula as needed.
