Its sweet peppery lightly anise-like flavour, with a hint of clove, makes it a favourite for traditional pesto, bruschetta, tomato sauces, pasta, salads, and fresh garnishes. Broad leaves are quick to harvest, while repeated pinching encourages a bushy shape and several cuttings throughout warm weather.
