I grew lemon basil for the first time in my garden. It's done great! Now I need to know how to use it? Anyone experienced with lemon basil?

Hi, Good for you! I believe, as will all basils, you can harvest it, add garlic ,olive oil, toasted pine nuts into blender and make a delicious pesto. Use it over pasta or as a salad dressing. Let me know how this comes out. Enjoy! Last edited by ilene on June 29th at 12:01 PM. |

Just mince it up and mix it with your salad, cook some in your sauces, dry some and sprinkle it on your poached eggs, or make pesto. You have a great day and happy gardening. Bill Mitchell |
