Micro Thai Basil

This product is not currently available.

Intensely aromatic Thai basil (Horapha, in Thai) has a signature anise-like scent and sweet flavor that, when joining a stir-fry of eggplant or poultry, creates a fragrant and authentically Thai dish. Pesto made from this basil’s long, slender leaves takes the classic to another dimension.

Here's what you get:

  • 2 oz of micro Thai basil

Basil Therapy

One of our favorite ways to use Thai basil is in a summer roll, with baby cilantro and carrots. But it seems the Southeast Asian native herb appears in our kitchens as frequently as its Italian cousin does—in a chicken soup with kaffir lime, snowpeas, and lemongrass, or mixed with mint and cilantro as a salad to accompany sea scallops. Maybe it’s also because, in aromatherapy terms, the scent of basil has a calming effect.
