Thai/Asian Basil - (Ocimum basilicum) |
|
|
Thai basil's name is Bai Hora-pa, also called Asian basil. Highly aromatic, they are slightly sweeter but more intense in flavor and are more stable when cooked than the Mediterranean basil. Leaves are narrower than the more rounded Mediterranean version. Wonderful container plant, as they only grow to about 24 in. tall.
Approx 50 seeds per pack

Thai Basil |
| I enjoyed growing this basil. Used it in many soups and marinades. Has a great flavor. It now is growing inside and is producing new growth rapidly. |

FINALLY I can make proper Thai food! |
| Thai food is one of those foods that you just cant fake with substitute ingredients. You have to use lemongrass, lime leaves galalgal and Thai BASIL or it just tastes off. Do you know how impossible it is to find Thai basil???? Alas, problem solved- grow my own. This is an excellent plant to grow. It is large leaved and can rival Genovese basil any day for flavorful leaves, prolific output, disease resistance,and heat tolerence. A MUST grow! |
