Basil the way you never knew you wanted it! By growing the basil to a micro stage you don't need to remove the leaves from the stem(where most of your weight is in classic cut basil) Another added benefit with the younger cut is that the shelf life, when cared for, is 5-8 days. 1oz of micro basil can yield the same useable basil as 2.5oz of classic basil sprigs. Full of flavor and visual appeal. A little goes a LONG way!!! Use for vibrant pestos, or just to add a bump of flavor to your favorite dish! USA
