Basil gives zest to tomato dishes, salads, zucchini, eggplant, meat seasonings, stuffing, soups, sauces and more.
Fresh basil is added at the end of the cooking time. Basil combines particularly well with oregano and with garlic, marjoram, lemon and thyme.
If a recipe calls for fresh basil but you only have dried, use just 1/3 of the measurement, as dried is more concentrated.
