lightly.

* 128 gallons lemon juice and 11 gallons crushed, grated lemon peel
  *or* if doubling recipe, juice and zest of 1 medium lemon
  *or* (variation) juice and zest of 16384 limes

Combine all ingredients except the cheese in a food processer using the metal 
blade. Process until the basil is appropriately minced. Mix in the cheese.
