  • African Blue Basil Chicken Soup
    African Blue Basil Chicken Soup Objective: Celebrate African cuisine Herb of the Month: African Blue Basil In Africa, soups are prolific- some would even say they are the main attraction of African cuisine. The most common sight in an African kitchen is a simmering stewpot filled with meat and vegetables, usually greens. African soups vary from country to country as they feature the vegetables and flavors unique to their part of the continent. They are often eaten with a starchy staple food such as rice, fufu (made from plantains) or pounded yam. Thought to originate from Kenya, African Blue Basil is less sweet than its more well- known cousin, sweet basil, with a flavor described as clove- like. Some have claimed that the flavor of this hybrid herb is best showcased in soups. So this recipe honors the African soup tradition and highlights African blue basil at its best by serving the quintessential comfort food, chicken soup, infused with the savory flavor of African blue basil. It may take time to make this soup, but as they say, good things come to those who wait! Ingredients: • 1 whole chicken (approximately 2 lbs) • 2 tbsp olive oil • 5 carrots • 1 celery root • 2 leeks • ¼ cup mushrooms (shitake or your preference) • 2 garlic cloves • Bay leaves (handful) • ½ cup kale chopped • 1 tablespoon of fresh African blue basil • Salt and pepper to taste Copyright © 2018 Eldergrow. All rights reserved. Directions: 1. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to a large soup pot and heat. 2. Add the chicken, onions, 1 clove of garlic, cabbage, 2 medium- sized carrots and 1 medium-sized leek, and fry for 3 - 4 minutes, stirring frequently.

  • Name: Basil – African Blue
    Name: Basil – African Blue African blue basil (Ocimum kilimandscharicum x basilicum 'Dark Opal') is an accidental hybrid between an East African basil and a garden variety basil called 'Dark Opal.' The African parent is a perennial shrub from forests of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, valued for its camphor scent. African blue basil was first seen in 1983 when Peter Borchard, owner of Companion Plants in Athens, Ohio, noticed it growing in the path between beds of the two presumed parents. The green-leaved East African basil parent grows to 6 feet tall in his garden. 'Dark Opal' is a small plant with deep purple leaves and a typical Italian basil flavor. Borchard dug the hybrid and brought it into the greenhouse, hoping to save seed, but the cross between the two species seems to be too far a stretch, because no seed formed. Borchard grew more plants from cuttings, and by cuttings has African blue basil entered the herb market. The variety is African blue basil. It is a decorative plant, which, if allowed to bloom, is covered with long flower stems of purple buds that open to lavender flowers. The 1- to 2 1/2-inch long leaves are a slightly grayed green with purple speckles on their undersides. The plant grows 1 1/2 to 2 feet tall when pinched to harvest, but would grow taller unpinched, and is much bushier than regular basil varieties. African Blue Basil also grows very well in a container. It is an extremely drought-tolerant herb. It will do fine in sun or partial shade, but should get at least 2 to 3 hours of sun per day.

The appealing rainbow colors come from the presence of betalain pigments found in the plant.
