This is my last post about basil, I promise.
I just wanted to note 2 more uses of the fresh basil from our garden.
A meal:
Tomato, mozzarella, prosciutto sandwich:
Grill ciabatta roll on a grill pan until desired crunch is reached. Pile fresh sliced tomato (lightly salt them first), mozzarella, prosciutto, and of course freshly picked basil leaves on half of the grilled ciabatta. Place other half on top…enjoy!
And a home decoration:
Basil Centerpiece:
Place fresh cut basil in a bud vase, surround with votive candles.
