| adding water |
I have heaps of basil of various kinds and with the weather turning cooler figured I needed to save some for winter. The first method I'm using is pretty simple - simply chop and place about 1 tsp basil in an ice cube and then top with water. When frozen you can transfer to plastic bag to free up the ice cubes for regular use or more basil. Come winter, just take out an ice cube and add it to whatever dish you are making. The water will evaporate, leaving just the fresh taste of basil to spice up your recipe. This works really well in spaghetti sauce and vegetarian stews in winter.
