Fresh Tulsi Basil in Louisville

Tulsi or Holy basil has been revered in India for thousands of years. Tulsi basil, like other types of basil, can help with digestive issues and can be mildly sedating. When used in a tea, tonic or tincture, tulsi basil can help balance one’s mood and restore vitality. In Ayurvedic medicine, tulsi basil is used daily to help balance the chakras and bring one’s joy and goodness out.

Tulsi basil is freshly cut just for you and sold in bunches, leaves and stem. Use them fresh in tinctures or vinegar infusion, or dry the leaves to enjoy as tea.

When you arrive to pick up your herbs, they’ll be in the red cooler by the back fence. Look for the Splendor in the Ville sign and you’ll know you’re in the right place. Find the tag with your name and take your cup(s). The cups have enough water in them to keep your herbs fresh until you get them home. You can store them in the cup for several days as long as you change the water. Once you’re done with the cup, don’t forget to recycle or compost it!

What to Do With Fresh Herbs 

Many people who purchase fresh herbs will use them for specific recipes or other cooking applications. In most cases, fresh herbs are added towards the end of the cooking process or sprinkled over the finished dish. Herbs can be steeped in warm (not HOT) water to make herbal teas or marinated in vinegar to flavor it. Here’s a few more ideas for using your herbs.

Basil is a great standalone addition to savory soups, sauces and stews but it’s also the key ingredient in pesto.
