McCormick® Basil Leaves, 0.62 oz

McCormick® Basil Leaves have an aromatic, sweet flavor that blends well with garlic and tomatoes. Use this pantry staple in family-favorite recipes like pizza, pasta and marinara sauce. You won’t find a more versatile herb than basil. This member of the mint family carries a fresh, green aroma with a hint of sweet licorice. It’s essential to Italian cooking but also used in a variety of cuisines including Thai, Indonesian and Vietnamese. Basil is delicious in everything from pesto and lasagna to minestrone and roasted meats. We gently dry the fresh basil leaves so that they retain their flavor, color and aroma. Rub the dried basil between your fingers before adding it to your dish to release the flavorful oils and superb fragrance.
