Thinly slice the garlic scapes.
Crush the pine nuts with a mortal and pestle.
Fry the scapes for a few minutes with a little oil to soften.
Add the pine nuts and toast until golden.
Pour the toasted nuts and scapes into a blender and add the basil.
Grate in the parmesan, drizzle in the olive oil, squeeze in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
Blend and serve with bread or on pasta.
