Sweet basil has a pungent, aromatic and spicy flavour that resembles cloves. It’s an outstanding choice as a home cuisine herb and you can never have too much sweet basil in the house. Sweet basil has a special affinity for tomatoes and is essential in a great pesto sauce. Add sweet basil to beans, cheeses, chicken, eggs, fish, marinades, marrows, mushrooms, and pasta. It also makes a great herb vinegar and herb butter.
