Profile: Sweet basil, dried, is a dependable herb with a delicious punch. Without it, no soup or tomato sauce is complete. It's heresy to serve breadsticks without a little sprinkle of dried basil.
Details
Summer basil thrives in full light and water. It develops rapidly, making it difficult to keep up. One can only produce so many tomatoes for a caprese salad, and making fresh basil pesto gets old after twenty-eight batches.
Dehydration is common in the summer. Whether you're making pasta Bolognese, lasagna, or a big meatloaf, these crushed basil leaves will provide a fresh, slightly spicy flavor to your food.
