Basil burgeons
Wednesday, 17 July 2019
Inattention suited the basil lately. The tall Genovese bush is thigh high; the Thai cultivar is to the right with the purplish flower spikes.
I picked a good pile of the Thai basil…
…and, with cilantro leaves, it made a terrific garnish for our Thai curry tofu. High protein version today with added edamame, peas. I think the rice has a bit of protein, too. I recently read that aging people need more protein.
Protein: check. And yummy, too!
