Thai Basil
Ocimum basilicum thyrsiflorum X1290
(Horapha) Similar to anise basil, but the flavour and fragrance is distinctively less licorice-like. This is the true strain used in Vietnamese and Thai cooking. Essential fresh cut accompaniment to many Vietnamese dishes, including pho, a famous beef or chicken noodle soup. Addictive!
