The basil seed mix from REINSAAT adds a special touch to your garden and your plate. With its delicate, violet-tinged leaves and its enticing, slightly sweet aroma reminiscent of aniseed and liquorice, this mix is an absolute must-have for any herb lover. The pink-purple flowers and dark violet stems not only add visual interest but are also a culinary highlight. Whether fresh or lightly fried, they lend an exquisite flavour to curries and delicate dishes.
To allow the full flavour of the leaves to develop, you should not cook them along with the rest of the dish. Instead, it is best to add the fresh leaves at the end of cooking, or use them raw in salads, on sandwiches or as a garnish for soups. This basil blend also adds an aromatic surprise to dips and dressings.
The seeds germinate in light and require a sunny spot and well-drained soil. Make sure to keep the soil evenly moist. Once they have germinated, you can trim the plants regularly to encourage growth and keep the leaves fresh. This method of cultivation not only ensures a bountiful harvest but also an intense flavour that takes your dishes to a whole new level.
With REINSAAT’s basil mix, you can bring a touch of nature and a wealth of flavour into your kitchen. It is also GMO-free, making it a healthy choice for your garden. Start your own herb project today and discover how easy it is to grow and enjoy fresh flavours yourself!
