I happened to buy some "lime basil" seeds this spring. I haven't had much luck with growing basil inside, so am always looking for ways to freeze the fresh herbs I can't grow inside. I used the lime basil, some peanuts and peanut oil, a little cilantro, ginger, and the juice of a half a lime and made this great "pesto" for the freezer. I plan on putting spoon fulls of it in coconut juice and chicken stock and making Thai green curry.
