Basil Powder

Basil powder is obtained by grinding the dried leaves, flowers and green twigs of the plant. This powder has an aromatic, slightly sweet and herbaceous flavor, characterized by notes of freshness and spice, with a pleasant intensity.

Chef’s Advice

Basil powder has many uses in cooking. It can be added to soups and salads, but especially to pasta, sauces, dressings, and tomato dishes for a touch of herbaceous and aromatic flavor. Even a sprinkling on a margherita pizza will give a surprising flavor.

What makes Ordine Contadino flowers and herbs special?

The flowers and herbs are hand-picked and within minutes brought to the drying rooms and placed on frames. The company practices natural drying by dehumidifying the air, without increasing the ambient temperature. The herbs, first defoliated, and dried flowers are placed in paper bags to be stored at controlled humidity and temperature. This process, combined with the chemical/physical/organic characteristics of the soil and the climatic value of the place (Temperature excursion/Solar exposure/Altitude) leads to a dried product with high concentration of essential oils and high color yield over time.
