My pots of basil are lush and full. The leaves leave a glorious scent. I snipped a few bunches just to put them in a glass of water. They perfume the kitchen. And now they’re growing roots. Can they be potted for the winter?
What else can I do to preserve my basil and have its leaves available to pop into winter pasta? Can I freeze the leaves? Dry them?
