Gourmet Garden Lightly Dried Basil is simply a large bunch of fresh basil, that has been harvested when essential oils are at their peak, then lightly washed, dried (just enough) and chopped to last up to 4 weeks once opened. (Store it right in the handy click 'n stack bowl!) Because it is only lightly dried it refreshes in cooking, giving you the closest flavour, appearance and aroma to that of fresh herbs...without the wilt guilt.

I used the Basil to garnish a balsamic vinaigrette salad and also in a homemade soup! It was surprisingly flavorful and very convenient. I would highly recommend for both garnish and cooking options!

The basil was very flavorful and green. The container is very nice and can be kept out of the way due to size. Other than fresh basil this is probably the next best thing. I will consider purchasing this product again.

Tasted a lot better than the store bought brand that's in a bottle. Tasted more fresh even though it was dried! I'd definitely recommend

Easy to use and fresh tasting. I use fresh basil all the time in my cooking. Fresh doesn't always last very long and frozen looses it's taste after a while and gets bitter. Very convenient packaging and easy to use.

This is a great tasting product that comes in a very easily accessible and easily stored container! It gave my meal just the taste it needed to make it taste a little fancy. It was very easy to find at town and so much better than having to dirty your cutting board!

I really enjoyed using the McCormick chopped lightly dried basil. It was fresh, not dried out and easy to mix in sauces and top foods. I also mixed it in a salad to enchance and brighten the flavor. I highly recommend purchasing this for a quick go to basil need.

Thanks so much to Gourmet Garden for letting me try out a free sample of their Lightly Dried Basil! I love cooking and was excited to try this product out. It promises flavorful, longer lasting freshness and it delivers! It does a great job combining convenience and practicality with flavor and freshness. This Lightly Dried Basil comes pre-chopped and stays good for up to four weeks, which makes it a breeze to use and saves time. It also packs a greater flavor punch over traditional dried basil, giving you the taste of fresh basil without worrying about not having any on hand or it going bad.
