DARÉGAL FROZEN BASIL: AS FLAVORFUL AS FRESH, AVAILABLE ALL YEAR ROUND
Basil aficionados can rest assured: frozen basil is not an inferior alternative to fresh basil. At Darégal, preserving the vibrant taste of aromatic herbs is a true hallmark.
Carefully selected by experts, cultivated in open fields and harvested at the peak of their maturity, Darégal aromatic herbs benefit from unique expertise, the result of nearly 140 years of experience.
Immediately after harvesting, they are washed and cut using specific, internally developed tools to prevent any damage. Then, they are frozen as quickly as possible.
Thanks to this meticulous process, Darégal basil preserves its freshness, its vibrant green color, and even its nutritional and organoleptic qualities. In cooking, it then reveals its full aromatic power – carried by its typical notes of clove, bergamot, and anise – as well as its beautiful lingering flavor.
MAXIMUM CONVENIENCE FOR SIMPLIFIED COOKING
In addition to being flavorful, Darégal frozen basil stands out for its ease of use, ideal for effortless daily cooking.
Already washed and finely chopped, it saves considerable time in the kitchen: no prior preparation or washing up is needed! Simply sprinkle it over dishes to instantly enhance them.
Easy to measure, by eye or by spoon, it also allows you to use the exact desired amount without any waste. No more forgotten bunches at the back of the fridge or withered potted plants; frozen basil can be used down to the last gram as needed.
And another major advantage: no need to wait for peak season to enjoy it. This vibrant-tasting basil remains available from January to December!
