Nuanced flavours for the gourmet.

There’s so much one can do with basil – but there are also many varieties of this fragrant herb. Although most of us will know that basil comes in green and purple, the many varieties, each with its own, nuanced flavour, may surprise. Apart from being tasty, basil is said to have anti-inflammatory properties, but you’ll be too busy enjoying your Italian, Eastern, or fusion food flavoured with basil to think much about that.
