THAI BASIL LOVE– When stir-fried in an Asian dish, Thai basil is more like a green vegetable than an herb. Its a totally different leaf than sweet basil.Thai basil wilts down in the pan and acts like spinach then…load it on! Oh oh with onions and soy sauce, maybe simmer down some thin eggplant slices til they are soft, then top with thai basil til it wilts down. Yum.
