Vitacost® Organic Basil adds spice to your life
Everyone from your grandma to the 20-something hipster couple next door grows their own fresh herbs. Undoubtedly, they look beautiful in their colorful, window boxes or symmetrical wall arrangements. But your grandma didn’t pass down her grass-stained, gardening genes, which means fresh herbs and spices aren’t a staple in your kitchen. Vitacost® Organic Basil will change that.
Though you don’t pluck it from the pot, Vitacost® Organic Basil tastes nearly as fresh as if you had. That’s why it works equally well in a creamy pesto, hearty, Italian pasta or homemade bruschetta. And it’s not just the peppery-sweet flavor that makes this dried basil an impressive alternative. The cheery aroma of Vitacost® Organic Basil is so close to the real thing, you’ll be eating with your nose first. See? No green thumb, no problem!
What’s the best way to cook with Vitacost® Organic Basil?
• Add to cold pasta salad with crumbled feta
• Sprinkled into homemade marinara
• Blend with nuts and olive oil to make pesto
• Stir with fresh diced tomatoes for bruschetta
• Mix into dough when making pizza crust or bread
