Current Facts
Basil, botanically a part of the Ocimum genus, is a general descriptor used to encompass many different varieties of aromatic herbs belonging to the Lamiaceae or mint family. The name Basil is derived from the Greek word basilikos, roughly translating to mean “herb worthy of a king,” and this title was given to the aromatic plant for its widespread use in medicinal and culinary applications worldwide. Ocimum basilicum, also known as Sweet Basil, is the most prevalent species commercially grown, and within the species, there are over 60 different varieties of Sweet Basil such as Dark Opal, Cinnamon, Globe, and Purple Basil. There are also well-known Basil hybrids, including Lemon and African Blue, and other Basil species such as Thai Basil grown for culinary and medicinal uses.
Nutritional Value
Basil is an excellent source of vitamin K, a nutrient that assists in faster wound healing, and is a good source of iron to build the protein hemoglobin to transport oxygen through the blood. The aromatic leaves also contain vitamin A to maintain healthy organ functioning, calcium to strengthen bones, manganese to stimulate protein digestion, and antioxidants to provide anti-inflammatory properties to protect against free radical damage. Basil contains an aromatic fragrance and flavor due to essential oils such as linalool, methyl chavicol, and eugenol. Each essential oil will be found in varying levels in different Basil varieties, giving each type a unique flavor and scent.
Applications
Basil is an aromatic herb used whole, chopped, or crushed in a wide variety of savory and sweet preparations. The leaves are most commonly used raw and are lightly torn, tossed into green salads, chopped and mixed into grain, rice, and noodle dishes, or used as a fresh topping over pizza and pasta. Basil can also be layered on toast with creamy spreads, placed inside sandwiches, infused into oils and vinegar, or blended into sauces such as pesto. Beyond fresh applications, Basil can be sauteed into eggs, stir-fried with vegetables, stirred into soups and curries, or deep-fried and served with roasted meats. The herbs can also be incorporated into sweet dishes such as sorbet or ice cream and used as a topping over shortcakes, cookies, and tarts. In addition to the leaves, Basil flower buds are edible and can be mixed into salads, soups, and bowls. Basil pairs well with nuts such as pistachios, pine nuts, and walnuts, tomatoes, zucchini, corn, artichoke hearts, radishes, bell peppers, aromatics including garlic, onion, red onion, ginger, lemongrass, and shallots, fruits such as pears, strawberries, nectarines, peaches, watermelon, and mango, and other herbs such as mint, parsley, and cilantro. Basil should be used immediately for the best quality and flavor. Fresh leaves attached to stems can be placed in a glass of water and lightly covered in the refrigerator, where they will keep up to one week. Individual leaves can also be stored in between paper towels in a plastic bag, kept in the fridge for 2 to 4 days. For extended use, Basil can be frozen in airtight plastic bags. Basil can also be dried and used as a spice, but much of the aroma and flavor will be lost in the drying process.
Ethnic/Cultural Info
In Italy, Basil has transitioned over time from a symbol of hate to a symbol of love. During the Ancient Roman Empire, many gardeners believed Basil would grow to larger sizes if the plant were yelled at and cursed while cultivating. This aggression established the herb’s hateful reputation, but later in the mid 14th century, Basil became a symbol of love and death in the story of Lisabetta and The Pot of Basil. The emotional story is contained within The Decameron, a novel written by Giovanni Boccaccio, centered around two lovers caught in a secret affair, Lisabetta and Lorenzo. One night Lorenzo was killed by Lisabetta’s brothers, and in anguish, Lisabetta cut off her lover’s head and buried it in the bottom of a potted Basil plant. Lisabetta wept over the Basil daily, and through her tears, the plant flourished and became a symbol of her lost love. The story tragically ends with the Basil plant being taken away from Lisabetta, but the tale transformed Basil's hateful reputation into a symbol of love in Italian culture. In the Middle Ages, Basil was also worn in single women's hair as a symbol of their availability for romance and was thought to help bring them love.
Geography/History
Basil is native to regions of Africa and Asia and has been growing wild for over 4,000 years. The ancient herb was introduced to the Mediterranean in the early ages through trade routes and was used for religious, medicinal, and folkloric purposes in Egyptian, Greek, and Roman civilizations. Basil was eventually spread to England during the 16th century and North America in the 17th century. Newspaper documentation mentioning the sale of Basil in New York can be found dating back to the end of the 18th century, quickly establishing the herb as a cultivated variety. Today, Basil can be found growing in warm, subtropical, and temperate regions worldwide, especially in Central Africa, Southeast Asia, the Mediterranean, New Zealand, Australia, and the United States. The herbs are cultivated for commercial use, grown in home gardens, and are also still found growing wild.
