Product information
THAI BASIL SIAM QUEEN
"Siam Queen" is a large leaf cultivar of Thai Basil that has been cultivated to provide a distinctive set of traits preferred in Asian cuisine. It has an identifiable liquorice flavour not present in sweet basil, and its flavour is more stable under high or extended cooking temperatures than that of sweet basil.
It has a stronger taste than many other sweet basils. It is very fast and easy to grow, and also quite pleasing to the eye. It produces flower heads that are deep burgundy, which contrasted nicely against the pale green and burgundy leaves.
Use Thai basil for Thai, Indian, and Italian recipes. Fresh, it can be added to salads, and either the fresh or dried forms can be used to flavour soups, pasta, and vegetable dishes.
Thai basil matches well with rice, poultry, and seafood. In Thai cuisine, great handfuls of fresh Thai basil leaves are added to spicy stir-fries. Thai basil can also be steeped into a soothing tea and used to flavour vinegar and oil as dressing components.
