About Basil Leaf
Aromatic and carminative. Though generally employed in cooking as a flavouring, Basil has been occasionally used for mild nervous disorders and for the alleviation of wandering rheumatic pains- the dried leaves, in the form of snuff, are said to be a cure for nervous headaches. An infusion of the green herb in boiling water is good for all obstructions of the internal organs, arrests vomiting and allays nausea. Basil has an aromatic, volatile, camphoraceous oil, and because of this is much employed in France for flavouring soups. They also use it in ragoûts and sauces. The leafy tops are a great improvement to salads and cups. Basil also combines wonderfully with Salads, Tomato in soups, sauces and juice, Pesto, Eggplant, Prawns, Potato, Lamb, Pasta.
