WAYS TO EAT:

North Shore Living Herbs ® Kitchen Tips! : For the most intense flavor, fresh basil should be added to cooked dishes or at the very end of the cooking process because prolonged heat will cause its oils to dissipate, which reduces the distinct flavor. Incorporate the whole leaf or mince finely with a sharp kitchen knife, depending on your recipe.
