Green Basil micro cress is used to add flavour, texture and colour to a range of dishes and canapés. It’s most commonly used as a flavourful and attractive edible garnish. Just like the mature Basil herb, this micro cress works well with classic pairings. For example, pair with tomato and mozzarella. Or for sweet dishes this microgreen works well with strawberries. Like most microgreens, green basil is intended for raw preparations. This is because it will wilt if exposed to prolonged heat. Although micro Green Basil cress works well on classic flavours and dishes such as pizza and pasta, it can also be used to garnish sweet dishes. The delicate leaves can be incorporated into summer fruit salads. As well as chocolate and lemon verbena desserts.

Taste: Micro Basil is highly aromatic, but a milder and sweeter version of the bunched Basil herb. Presenting a balance between citrus, pepper and mild anise flavours. Micro Basil is crisp, tender and aromatic with a bright green appearance.
