I received a thick, foil-lined resealable paper pouch containing 250g of dried basil leaves that smell incredibly fragrant. Although the flavor is different from fresh basil, the dried version is perfect for storing in the cupboard and can be used at any time. This pack offers great value at just £6.76 for 250g, especially compared to small 16g jars of supermarket brands, which cost around £1 each. More importantly, this basil is fresher and much more aromatic. The only downside is that I may not be able to use all of it before the best-before date (31/10/2025), so I plan to transfer it into smaller jars and share it with friends and family. I’ll likely continue using it beyond the best-before date, as dried herbs don’t spoil, though they may lose some flavor over time.
