HERBED VINEGARS
This is a simple way to make herbed vinegars. Herbed vinegars make great gifts and will last for over 6 months. (Use approximately 3 sprigs of herbs for each 16 ounce bottle.) Try using thyme, oregano, rosemary, chives, tarragon or fennel with different vinegars to make all kinds of variations. Hint: If you use purple basil, the vinegar will taste great, and be a lovely shade of purple!

- In a small saucepan, combine the vinegar with 1/3 cup of water and heat until the mixture begins to boil. Remove from heat.
- Slip about 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary into the cooled bottle.
- Using a funnel and care (!), pour the hot (NOT boiling) vinegar into the bottle over the rosemary. Cover tightly with lid and store at room temperature.

- If using basil flowers: Clean the flowers by dipping them into a bowl of water, and set aside to dry.If using basil leaves: Rinse the basil and set aside to dry.Optional: Heat the vinegar until it's warm. Do not bring it to a boil.Tip: Heating the vinegar will help the blossoms infuse more quickly, but will produce a slightly less delicate flavor than room temperature vinegar.
- Add the basil or basil flowers to a clean glass jar, and muddle them with a cocktail muddler or the back of a wooden spoon.Pour the vinegar over the flowers into the jar until the jar is almost full. (The amount of vinegar listed is approximate; you may need slightly more or less.)Place the citrus peel on top of the flowers to help keep them submerged.
- Seal the jar, and place it in a cool place out of direct sunlight. Check on the vinegar daily to make sure the basil is still submerged.Allow the basil to infuse for anywhere from 3 days (if you used warm vinegar), or 3-5 weeks (for room temperature vinegar), until you like the flavor. Note that even warm vinegar infusions can be infused for 3-5 weeks. It all depends on your flavor preferences.Finally, strain out and discard (or compost) the basil and citrus peel. Store the vinegar in a sealed jar in the fridge, and use within 6-8 months.

Estimated Reading Time 9 mins
- Contains Disease-Fighting Antioxidants. This herb’s antioxidants and oils have the ability to help fight free radical damage while protecting DNA structure and cells.
- Acts as an Anti-Inflammatory. Basil contains powerful essential oils, including eugenol, citronellol and linalool. Findings from studies indicate that these enzyme-inhibiting oils help lower inflammation, which is at the root of most diseases like heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel conditions.
- Helps Fight Cancer. Clinical studies published in Nutrition and Cancer also show that basil contains phytochemicals, which can help naturally prevent cancer, including chemical-induced skin, liver, oral and lung cancers.
- Contains Antibacterial Properties. Another one of the benefits of basil essential oil is to provide protection against harmful bacterial growth. In studies, basil extract is even shown to be helpful in inhibiting resistant strains of bacteria that don’t respond to antibiotic treatments.
- Contains Antimicrobial Properties that Fight Viruses and Infections. Basil essential oils have been found to exhibit antimicrobial activity against a wide range of bacteria, yeasts, molds and viruses.
- Combats Stress by Acting as an Adaptogen. Studies show that basil has strong potential to act as a natural adaptogen, an herbal medicine that helps the body adapt to stress and normalize the harmful effects of stressors.
- Fights Depression. Benefits of basil also apply to those with mental disorders or mood-related illnesses, including depression and anxiety. This herb is considered an antidepressant by some since it can positively impact brain function within the adrenal cortex, helping stimulate neurotransmitters that regulate the hormones responsible for making us happy and energetic.
- Promotes Cardiovascular Health. Both an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory food, basil can help the muscles that control blood vessel function contract and relax, promoting healthy blood pressure.
- Supports Liver Function and Helps Detoxify the Body. A study published in the Journal of Medicinal Food found that when sickly rats were given basil extract over a period of five days, they experienced significant improvements in producing detoxifying enzymes, higher antioxidant defenses and a reduction of fat buildup in the liver that can cause liver disease.
- Helps Alkalize the Body and Improve Digestion. This herb has been shown to help balance acid within the body and restore the body’s proper pH level in animal studies.

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.
