Front and center in dozens of dishes from multiple regions of the world, Basil has been used for centuries as a delicious herb and more. Young Living offers Basil Vitality essential oil as a convenient way to access this well-loved seasoning whenever you like. Using an essential oil in place of a dried herb gives a brighter flavor, as well as the added convenience of year-round availability.
Young Living’s Basil Vitality oil has a sweet, slightly peppery flavor and is a delicious addition to savory dishes such as sauces, breads, soups, chicken, or seafood. This oil packs a very potent punch, as it is steam distilled from the leaves, stems, and flowers of the plant. We recommend starting with less than a single drop by dipping a toothpick in the oil and swirling the toothpick in your preparation. When baking, marinating, or dressing a salad, add Basil to the liquids before combining with other ingredients to ensure even distribution. We hope you enjoy some of these uses for basil below and share your favorites with us as well. • Flavor your favorite pasta sauce recipes with Basil Vitality.
