Add the mint, basil, pistachios, miso paste, sesame oil, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to a food processor. Pulse 8–10 times until the mixture is coarsely chopped and the ingredients are roughly combined.

With the processor running, stream in the olive oil in a slow, steady pour until the pesto comes together into a thick, slightly textured paste that holds its shape on a spoon. Scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula and pulse once or twice more to incorporate any stray herbs.
