10 FOODS THAT PAIR WELL WITH BASIL - ONE GREEN PLANET
From onegreenplanet.org
Author Rhea ParsonsPublished 2017-05-14Estimated Reading Time 7 mins
- Tomatoes. Tomatoes are the most classic pairing with basil. Perhaps one of the most well-known dishes with basil is the Caprese salad. In this salad, basil leaves are layered over tomato slices and mozzarella cheese and lightly drizzled with olive oil.
- Olive Oil. As in the Caprese salad described above, basil pairs well with olive oil. A good way to use basil is to infuse your favorite olive oil with it.
- Garlic. Along with olive oil, basil is often paired with garlic to make pesto. Pesto is a sauce made with basil, olive oil, garlic, some type of nuts such as pine nuts or walnuts and sometimes lemon and Parmesan cheese, all blended into a thick, green paste.
- Balsamic Vinegar. Basil paired with balsamic vinegar, olive oil and garlic makes a savory, delicious vinaigrette that is perfect on salads, pasta and veggies.
- Fruit. Strawberries aren’t the only fruit that pairs well with basil. Basil also goes well with fruit like watermelon, lime, lemon, oranges, mango and other stone fruits.
- Mint. Since basil is part of the mint family, it makes sense that basil and mint go well together. You can add a combination of the two herbs in any recipe that uses mint such as this Raw Kiwi Tart with Ginger, Mint and Coconut.
- Lemon. Speaking of zucchini, you definitely want to make these Zucchini Fritters with Lemon Basil Cashew Cream. Basil and lemon pair well together and add a bright, refreshing taste to any dish.
- Eggplant. Speaking of lemon and basil, there is a type of basil that is called Lemon basil. It is also called Thai lemon basil and Lao basil. Lemon basil is used in Indonesian and Thai cuisine.
- Vegetables. Besides eggplant, zucchini and squash, basil pairs well with artichokes, mushrooms, and green vegetables including salad greens. Tear basil into shreds or roughly chop it and add to a salad with mixed greens, romaine lettuce, red leaf lettuce, frisee or watercress.
- Peanut Butter. Last but not least, basil pairs well with peanut butter. People actually make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with fresh basil leaves.
