Ingredient - Basil
Updated December 31st, 1969
Basil is one of the most popular herbs in Italian and Mediterranean style cooking. It is delicious in all tomato dishes and improves many vegetables, green salads, vegetable soups, meat, fish, poultry and egg dishes.
To cultivate Basil, cut the leaves 3 to 4 inches from the top of the plant just as the first buds appear. The plants may have a second and third cutting later in the summer.
The flavor and color are very perishable so handle fresh basil gently to avoid bruising. Package basil carefully and store it under the best conditions.
