Notes
Note 1. If you're a pesto lover, don't throw the carrot tops out, reserve them as they're perfect to help bulk up any pesto you make!
Note 2. Taking walnuts out after 10 minutes ensures the walnuts are nicely roasted and not burnt. Burnt walnuts turn bitter and unpleasant to eat.
Storing carrot tops. You can store these like any herbs in the fridge; wrapped in a kitchen towel and inside an airtight container.
