Frontier Co-op Basil Leaf, Sweet, Cut & Sifted, Certified Organic, Kosher, Non-irradiated | 1 lb. Bulk Bag | Ocimum basilicum

I was indignant that Frontier provided me with a 16 ounce container of largely odorless and stale powder, along with a number of small, sharp sticks (meaning that the powder presented a real choking hazard). Once I was unable to (by hand) remove the multitude of small sharp sticks that I found, once my fingers were cut and bled from the sharp sticks, I contacted Amazon customer service who graciously refunded the full purchase price to me.

The flavor of basil just makes me happy Whenever I smell it, I am transported back in time to cooking with my Grandmother, and nothing can replace the taste With a small hint of sweetness and a touch of pepper. The same is true with most other herbs, except that fresh basil is best paired with pesto, which produces a much better result with dried basil. In terms of this particular product in front of you, Frontier is my choice It has always been my pleasure to buy organic herbs and spices from them, and my basil always comes smelling wonderful and looking beautiful. The color was just the right shade of green to indicate that the quality was what I would expect, without stems or stray bits that you might encounter in a lower-quality product The bulk buy is of high quality. This is a lot of basil, but it can be kept for a year or longer if you take care of it Then, you can store what you imagine you will reasonably need in a spice bag (I use mason jars for my spices, a tip I learned from my Mom), press out the air from the bag, tape it shut, and tuck it away in a Purchasing your spice jar when you need it will provide you with a great deal of savings on a quality product. And basil is so versatile! As far as I can recall, oregano is typically viewed as the go-to herb in America Traditionally, basil is used as an Italian herb, but basil works just as well as it. If you're making your own pie, you can throw some fresh basil into the tomato sauce, toss it with some pasta, or add it into your pizza (especially if there's white sauce). While basil is good for more than just Italian food, there are many other ways to use it What kind of curry do you like? With some basil, Thai curry is wonderful, so you don't need to buy a special variety of basil My Thai curry dishes often have 2 to 1/4 cups of basil added to them, and the bright, fresh flavor of the basil helps to cut some of the heat and give the dish a nice, fresh taste. As well as Indian dishes, it can be used Despite the fact that cilantro is the most commonly used herb in curry, basil will (typically) surpass it in flavor and, for those who cannot eat cilantro, this is a good alternative. There's also winter close at hand, and for me that means 2) Sprinkle some basil on top You can pair it with a warm piece of crusty bread for the best results. A fresh veggie sandwich with a dash of basil is our favorite, and the herb adds some depth to salad dressings and marinades, too. As well as lots more goodies as you can see! If you have made it this far, I hope you find this review useful and interesting. You clearly have an interest in the topic. Go ahead and grab some A big bag of organic basil is one of the better things to indulge in.

A new frontier is being opened up every time and it gets better and There is no better way to enjoy the taste of fresh basil than with the leaves chopped fine. Ensure that the air is tightly sealed. Before you use herbs and spices, remember to lightly toast them to bring out their flavors. You can also rub them between your palms for a quick preparation if you are in a hurry the warmth and oils of your own body will bring out the best flavor. There is no need for you to question sanitary unless you don't wash your hands or are worried about germs.

When we opened the box from which the bag arrived, we could smell basil as a couple of pin pricks in the bag had punctured. Freshness of the product was not affected by this. Compared to anything she's bought before (even Penzeys), these herbs are much fresher. Our basil and oregano probably last a year between her and I. She uses a lot of basil and oregano. As long as they're stored properly, their shelf lives can be at least one year. I just found out that my wife keeps each one in a Lock & Key Be sure to lock the cereal container so that it remains fresh. Getting the herbs into the container is somewhat of a chore since you are jiggling the container slightly. With the L&G containers, she will refill her old BJ's containers For the kitchen, you'll need L one. It is definitely worth splitting an order with a friend if you don't need such a large quantity of these herbs. As another reviewer suggested, Frontier should enclose their bags with a zip. Considering their design, the bags are not strong enough to withstand the tests of time As a result, we prefer to use our own containers because they are more durable. In the future, Frontier brand herb and spice will be replaced with our current inventory.

Our family likes to eat things that have basil in them. It is difficult not to salivate when one tastes pizza with olive oil and basil. It is unfortunate that the grocery store sells a small container for several dollars when we go to the store. In terms of freshness and flavor, this basil is superior to that at the store since it is available for less money and in more quantity. The only reason I have given it 4 stars for freshness and flavor is that fresh out of the garden beats it both ways. Despite this, this is likely the better value unless you are trying to start a garden.

While I read some bad reviews of this basil, I decided to try it anyway. appeared that the bad reviews were the result of poor packaging, which led to a lack of freshness. A lot of people were lucky to have me. In its sealed and unopened condition, the silver bag was received at our office. As soon as I opened it, I inhaled the sweetest, most fragrant scent of basil I have ever experienced. Naturally, dried basil would be the best. This spice has an incredible aroma and is being used in two of my dishes chicken noodle soup and a chili recipe. We served it with an organic marinara sauce and herb crusted chicken. With a marinara sauce (oregano is THE BECKET), dried basil is a terrific shortcut, and although it doesn't provide as much flavor as fresh basil, it gives me a great deal of flavor without running out. In the past, I have not purchased another spice brand due to my very positive experience with frontier spices. All 10 frontier spices that I received smelled fresh, were fragrant, and were This batch of basil is a LOT more than you can get from a store, plus, buying in bulk is WAY more cost-effective than buying from a store. In my 27 ounce spice jar, roughly a tenth of the bag is enough. It was the rest that went in the silver bag that was vacuum-sealed (without removing any air). It was Hopefully, it will stay cool for a long time. It will last me around 3 years if I cook every night with this amount of basil. It would have been a smarter decision to go halves with someone else on my seasoning purchases, and I'd recommend it.
