Sweet Thai Basil (bai horapah in Thai) tastes rather like anise, looks like European sweet basil, and is used in red and green curries, stir-fries and eaten raw as a vegetable (especially with Thai Beef Noodle Soup).

Store basil wrapped in a paper towel inside a ziplock bag. Use it soon after buying, because this herb is highly perishable and does not dry or freeze very well.
