Flavor & cooking character
Dried basil brings a warmer, more concentrated herbal note than fresh leaves. It works well in cooked sauces, but it will not reproduce the juicy texture or vivid aroma of a fresh basil garnish.
What to cook
Pasta sauce, pizza, soups, vegetables, garlic bread, beans and herb blends.
How much to use & when to add it
Start with 1 teaspoon per 2 cups of tomato sauce.
Add early enough to hydrate, then taste near the end; a dry herb needs contact with moisture to lose its papery texture.
Use this amount as a starting point for flavor, then adjust to your food and taste. If other ingredients bring salt, sweetness or heat, account for those before adding more seasoning.
Kitchen idea: Basil tomato beans
Simmer one can of chopped tomatoes with 1 teaspoon basil and 1 tablespoon olive oil for 10 minutes. Add a drained can of white beans and heat through. Finish with black pepper and serve on toast.
