This heat is crazy hot for May. Broken high temperature records is not my idea of fun. It is also playing havoc with my basil plant.
It seems like every other day I am pinching the flowers off of this poor plant.
Has anyone ever used basil flowers in a recipe? I know that if you allow it to continue flowering the basil gets a touch bitter, but what about those pinched flowers? I have what feels like buckets full.
