BASIL DRIED LEAVES

Dried basil leaves come from the basil herb, air-dried to preserve their sweet, slightly peppery flavor with hints of mint and clove. While milder than fresh basil, dried basil adds a warm, aromatic depth to a variety of dishes, especially in Mediterranean and Italian cuisine.

Culinary Tips:

Add to tomato-based sauces, pasta dishes, soups, and stews.

Sprinkle on pizza, roasted vegetables, or grilled meats.

Combine with oregano, thyme, and garlic for seasoning blends.

Crush in your hand before adding to release more aroma.

Add early in cooking to allow flavors to develop and infuse the dish.
