Holy basil has a very clove-like flavor and scent, while green pepper basil has the flavor of both green peppers and basil. You can find green pepper basil from Nicholsgardennursery.com.Jim Longs Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12018979072600103985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7445073115141249182.post-24956178596308670802011-04-28T13:29:18.727-05:002011-04-28T13:29:18.727-05:00Amanda, thanks for posting the link to your blog a...Amanda, thanks for posting the link to your blog and the great lilac recipes.

Your recipe looks scrumptious and I need to get an ice cream maker this year, but was holding out for a new pasta machine.

I saw a posting on Green Pepper Basil. Do you still grow it? Are you familiar with Thai Holy Basil (think it's the same as Indian Holy Basil...Tulsi)? Does this have a similar taste? I know the Holy Basil has a peppery taste. I'm looking for a substitute as the Holy isn't that easy to grow away from the tropics.

I could get right up to them at eye level. I love that flower. This was in northern Ohio on Lake Erie!compost in my shoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06572258657523962702noreply@blogger.com
