Does anybody here grow herbs?
I planted some basil a few years ago and didn't bother to ... restrain the plant in any way. It has now run completely amok, and is also sporting lovely light purple flowers. I'm just wondering if the leaves themselves are still edible, since the plant has run so wild, or will they be unpleasantly bitter or something?
Also, if the leaves are still okay to eat, has anybody got any recommendations on how to preserve them? Can I just air-dry them?
Thanks.
