Brilliant in tomato pasta dishes and sprinkled on top as a garnish
Perfect for pesto, this product is so easy to use, and tastes absolutely delicious.
Great taste and fabulous for convenience.
I've tried the basil from jux food. I've used a little to a lot. Ive soaked in water, also mixed into recipes.
I can't say it has the taste of basil, but it gives a flavour. I wouldn't buy as a basil but more for the nutritional claims I guess.
Loss far I’ve found JUX herbs convenient to use but not tastier than regular dried herbs and certainly not at all as tasty and pungent as fresh herbs. I do like a good smattering of herbs on an omelette and JUX is super quick and easy to use for that.
