Genovese Basil
I planted Genovese basil from seed this year. I went with this variety because it is the classic basil used in pesto. It has a very robust flavor.
Man oh man did I make some pesto. I probably have 15 containers of it in the freezer. We’re already enjoying it.
I dried plenty of basil as well in the fancy, $50 dehydrator I bought this summer. I needed a way to dry it in less time, and this was a good solution. Dehydrating also resulted in a more appealing color.
I don’t think we’ll have to buy dried basil from the Amish store for a long time. I hope the bottle you’ve received will be used in lots of good recipes.
