Fresh basil is a highly aromatic herb with a sweet, peppery flavor and subtle notes of anise and mint. It is the foundational ingredient of classic Italian pesto and pairs flawlessly with tomatoes, garlic, and olive oil. Add it at the very end of cooking to preserve its delicate essential oils and vibrant green color.
