Culinary Tips:

• The “Finish” Rule: Never cook basil microgreens; the heat destroys their delicate texture and volatile oils. Sprinkle them on top of hot pasta, pizza, or soup just before serving.
• Micro-Pesto: Use them to make a vibrant, “no-chop” pesto. Their stems are tender enough to be blended whole.
• Best Pairings: Fresh mozzarella, heirloom tomatoes, balsamic glaze, and strawberry-based desserts.

Storage Tip: To keep your Microgreens at peak freshness, store them in your refrigerator’s crisper drawer. Keep them dry and in an airtight container; only wash them immediately before you are ready to eat!
