Season: June to September                                                                         Storage: 8-10 months

How to freeze: pluck leaves from the stems and freeze                

Toppits freezing tip for basil:

Add some oil to the classic pesto ingredient when freezing, instead of just freezing individual leaves: purée with oil, form small blobs on a tray using a disposable piping bag (Toppits) and then freeze. Store the portions in Freeze Boxes or freezer bags and use as required to spice up your meals.
