Purple Basil
Purple basil microgreens have a sweet, slightly spicy, and clove-like flavor with subtle hints of anise, offering a more intense taste than mature basil leaves. They are often used to add vibrant color and aroma to pasta, pizzas, salads, caprese dishes, pestos, and as a garnish for cocktails or desserts. These microgreens are rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as minerals like calcium, iron, and magnesium. Their bioactive compounds, including anthocyanins and essential oils like eugenol, provide strong antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory effects.
