Dried Holy Basil Leaf 50g
Unlock the Authentic, Pungent Flavor of Thai Pad Krapow
Holy Basil (Ocimum tenuiflorum), known as Krapow in Thailand and Tulsi in India, is far more potent and distinctive than sweet Italian basil. This dried leaf offers a unique, fiery, peppery, and slightly clove-like aroma that is absolutely essential for creating authentic Thai cuisine.
The most famous application is the fiery stir-fry Pad Krapow, but this 50g bag of dried leaves is also highly valued globally for brewing invigorating herbal teas (Tulsi tea), traditionally associated with calming and balancing properties in Ayurveda.

-
Authentic Thai Flavor: Provides the crucial, pungent, peppery taste required for the definitive Thai dish, Pad Krapow.
-
Dual Use Herb: Perfect for adding flavor to stir-fries and curries, or for brewing as a soothing, caffeine-free herbal tea (Tulsi).
