Description
Reviews

The exotic basil is not only well-suited for the typical Vietnamese noodle soup but also often unfolds its typical liquorice flavour with a touch of clove in East Asian meat dishes. The spicy, anise-scented leaves are mainly used fresh and match many Asian dishes. Thai Basil also wonderfully suits curries with coconut milk.

It's similar to wild basil in its usage as well as in taste and is an excellent tea herb.
