Ground Basil

Description

Our Dried Basil Leaves have been heat treated (to sterilise the herb) and rubbed to 1-4mm size, or ground to a fine aromatic powder. Basil has become one of the most recognizable herbs used to flavour pizza sauce and pesto (basil, pine nuts and Parmesan cheese), but also goes well with a variety of foods, i.e. meat, fish, vegetables, pasta, soups, sauces, tomatoes, vinegars and olive oils.

Note: When using ground herbs, use half the amount compared to using rubbed herbs.
