Basil Leaf, Whole

Basil Leaf, Whole

Ocimum Basilicum

In the past, Basil was used for many other reasons besides cooking. One such folklore was that if you gave a woman a sprig of Basil, she would fall deeply in love with you, but I think a bouquet of roses would work better in your favor. Our Basil might not help someone fall in love with you, but the slightly sweet aromatic flavor and the strong, pungent, sweet aroma will add a new depth of flavor to your cuisine.
