THAI BASIL - OCIMUM BASILICUM

The Mediterranean species have an intensely herbal, slightly sweet, pepper-like taste, and the aroma of fresh basil somewhat resembles the aroma of cloves. Thai basil has a sweet anise-like taste, and there are varieties with a citrus scent and a spicy taste.

Thai basil, called "Bai Horapa" or "sweet basil", smells like anise and licorice. It is botanically different from European basil. In Thai cuisine, basil leaves are used in various dishes such as green curry, red curry and some soups and sauces. Thai basil is never cooked, but always added at the end of cooking. It is best to use it fresh. The plant needs a sunny and warm place. Pruning at least 10 cm above the ground makes new lateral shoots and grows shrubby. Water every 3 weeks with liquid fertilizer. He has been making purple flowers since July.
