PASTA SAUCE STARTS WITH GARDEN FRESH BASIL

 Hi friends, nice of you to stop by! How many of you make your own pasta sauce? Wether it's marinara or a sauce full of meats , a good pasta sauce starts with fresh grown Basil.



It's really easy to grow, also fast! This basil was ready to use after about 4 weeks. That along with some cans of crushed tomatoes,  fresh garlic, oregano  and extra virgin olive oil.

I like to take the fresh basil leaves crush them with some sea salt in the morter. It releases the oils and terrific aroma as well. 




Adding all the ingredients  and letting it simmer for a couple hours makes a delicious dinner!







Fresh tomatoes can also be used, a great way to use your garden harvest.


                               Thankyou for stopping by,
                                Eat fresh friends!
