Description
Organic Green Basil
Organic Green Basil, botanical name Ocimum basilicum, is the classic variety of basil, the one most widely known and used in cooking. Its seeds take a few days longer to germinate than most other varieties, but in the end you will get small sprouts with a fresh, sweet taste that will satisfy from the first taste.
How can I grow it?
Producing organic green Basil sprouts is quick and easy, even at home.
Green Basil, like all other variants of the same family, has a mucilaginous seed: this means that when it comes into contact with water, it develops a mucous membrane around itself to ensure proper and constant moisture throughout germination. Therefore, we advise you to avoid soaking and start rinsing them in lukewarm water at least 2/3 times a day. By storing the seeds in the dark and continuing to rinse them regularly, you can consume your organic green Basil sprouts after about a week.
How can I eat it?
Organic green Basil seeds may contain traces of soy, mustard, wheat, gluten and grasses.
Store the seeds in a cool and ventilated place, with temperature between 8° and 20° C, away from weather, humidity changes and sunlight.
