Holy Basil

This is a kind of basil I knew in my country Philippines. I only used it for cooking chicken meat. I'm not sure if it is really the Holy basil. I have a coincidence with the google picture. Please correct me if I am wrong. We usually used it in cooking native chicken soup paired when moringa and lemongrass.

It could be best for grilling whole chicken. Just clean the chicken, salt it according to your taste. Put a lot of basil leaves inside the belly of the chicken with lemongrass. There's no need for any spices. Then grilled it. Try it and tell me what you could say about it

Lemon Basil

This is the favorite of the Saudi people. Every time we have a visitor, they picked it and put on the table. When the visitor will go home, they picked and bring it home.

Cinnamon Basil

This is my choice. I love the scent of its fragrance. I love putting it in my room. It eliminates the odor around and changes with its fragrance. I always put it during bedtime together with the aloe vera plant.

Again, I'm not sure the specific name, please correct me if I am wrong. What I can be sure of that these all belong to the basil plants.

My own information from my grandparent

They told me that basil.leaves is good for a stomach disorder. It also helps when we have ulcers. The procedure is just simple by eating it raw. We could also use it mix with salad. But the most effective use is to eat the leaves after washing it. Just chew enough amount for the day and repeat the procedure on the next day for just one week.

Maybe, using herbs has no overdose but we have to be aware and search for the best use. Sometimes, too much is not good anymore.

This is my #wednesdaywalk for @tattoodjay at home sharing the best experience in my garden about basil plant. I hope you find it interesting.
