You can instantly recognize purple basil thanks to its small purple leaves and its slightly spiced and more refined aroma compared to other basil species. It’s perfect for enhancing your salads, both in terms of taste and decoration.

It pairs well with summer vegetables, and why not in a sorbet.

You can also use it for infusions to aid digestion and sleep.

Add it at the end of cooking to preserve all its flavours; it’s better to tear it rather than chop it to make the most of its aromas.

Flowering makes the leaves bitter and stops growth. We advise you to trim your basil plant regularly to prevent it from flowering. After trimming your garden, you can freeze what you haven’t used by placing the leaves in an airless freezer bag, or by chopping the leaves in ice cube trays filled with water or oil and placing them in the freezer. You can also keep your basil leaves directly in a bottle of oil to infuse it. If dried, it will lose a lot of its flavours.

Before consuming any aromatic or medicinal plants, it is recommended that people undergoing treatment, children, and pregnant or breastfeeding women seek medical advice.
