Ocimum basilicum
Use:
Basil's leaves are used fresh or dried. Basil epitomizes the Italian-Mediterranean cuisine. It seasons pestos, Insalata Caprese (a salad with tomatoes and mozzarella), Margherita pizza and pasta.
Origins:
Basil originated in Western Asia, but was brought by the Romans to Italy and has been used in the Mediterranean for ages. Today, basil is used worldwide and is a popular garden spice.
