TJ's pack of cubed basil might sound like an oddity, but rest assure that this beats the dried stuff hands down. Okay, it's not as good as fresh, but I would give it an award for  second runner up anytime. The cubes are roughly the size of a bullion cube and come in a resealable tray. They are flash frozen which means that the basil retains most of its color and flavor. If I make a large pot of spaghetti sauce for eight people, three to four cubes will pack in a bunch of basil flavor. It has plenty of other uses as well. Try it next time you think about shaking one of those little McCormick bottles over whatever you are cooking. It will make a big difference.

TJ's also makes similarly packaged garlic and parsley. Add the basil, mix in some butter and Parmesan cheese and you can come up with a very delightful spread for your next loaf of garlic bread.
