ELEVATED FLAVOR
IN EVERY DISH.
Fresh basil transforms a dish. Here are some of our favorite ways to use Krav Farms basil — from weeknight classics to restaurant-worthy finishes.
BASIL VINAIGRETTE
Blend fresh basil, lemon, Dijon, garlic, and olive oil into a bright vinaigrette that upgrades any salad, grain bowl, or grilled protein.
MARGHERITA PIZZA
San Marzano tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and Krav Farms basil added right after the oven — always vibrant, never wilted.
TOMATO BASIL PASTA
Sauté cherry tomatoes in olive oil with garlic, toss with al dente pasta, finish with generous torn fresh basil. Simple and stunning.
CLASSIC BASIL PESTO
Two cups of Krav Farms basil, good olive oil, Parmesan, garlic, and pine nuts — blended to bright, herbaceous perfection.
Classic Caprese Salad
Fresh mozzarella, ripe tomatoes, Krav Farms basil, aged balsamic, and your best olive oil. Perfection in five minutes.
KEEP BASIL FRESH LONGER
Never refrigerate fresh basil — cold turns leaves black quickly. Trim the stems and place your Krav Farms basil in a glass of water at room temperature, like flowers. Cover loosely with a bag and it stays fresh for up to a week. For living plants, keep them on your counter in indirect light and water the base regularly.
