The leaves release their full flavour only when cooked. you can use this dried Holy Basil any time because it does not lose any flavour in the drying process, or if stored for a long time

In Thailand it is also sometimes sautéed with frogs' legs. Hindus believe that basil is sacred and they like to plant it in religious sanctuaries. With a slightly hot flavour, though not so hot as pepper, holy basil leaves are used in many Thai dishes, including stir-fried meat dishes such as Pad Bai Gra-Pao and curries.

Basil is also used for medical purposes, to treat indigestion and to stimulate the appetite.
