Product Description

Basil Dark Opal is an organically grown basil variety. It has very unusual, large, shiny and very delicious flavoured dark purple till green leaves. This basil is also very decorative in the garden and flower borders. Basil combines very well with tomatoes, aubergines, courgettes, garlic, meat, fisch and cheese.

Basil Dark Opal is also delicious in vinaigrettes, pickled in vinegar and in oil. Basil looses a lot of flavour during cooking, so don't cook it too long. You can add basil fresh and sliced to heated dishes after cooking. Use basil cold in pesto, salads and in salad Caprese. Add basil to pastasauces, soups, marinade, omelettes and on pizza's after cooking. Non hardy annual.
