Little Pots Of Basil

Did a quick grocery shop yesterday which included this bundle of basil. I am crazy for those little cups of basil that come in the long thin clear plastic sleeve in the produce section. They are the handiest thing as the basil lasts a good while as the bunch is still rooted. Just keep that submerged in water and all will be good and you will have lots of basil to use while you cook. Last night was our first Caprese salad of the season. I just snipped a few leaves and we were off and running. The little paper cups are not the most attractive things, so slip it into a cool looking vessel. We have these little green buckets that work perfectly. It gets placed by the kitchen window. The breeze blows the basil about, giving off its divine scent!
