I have always liked basil, so when Burger King came out with the new basil and black pepper chicken drumettes, I had to try it.Basically Burger King have used their usual spicy drumettes and smothered it with black pepper and basil.The original spices of the drummette combined with black pepper makes it even more hot.The basil was different to the one I was expecting, which led me to find out there are so many different types of Basil.The type used here is the one used in Asian cuisine and not i
Basically Burger King have used their usual spicy drumettes and smothered it with black pepper and basil.
The original spices of the drummette combined with black pepper makes it even more hot.
The basil was different to the one I was expecting, which led me to find out there are so many different types of Basil.
The type used here is the one used in Asian cuisine and not in the Italian cuisine.
Basil world confusion:
As a european, Basil just means Basil, the one that is used in Pasta and Italian dishes, however when you come over to Asia they have a different species of Basil.
The confusion starts here, the basil usually found in Europe is classified as sweet basil [lor lacque 甜羅勒 ]
and the one the asians use is Thai Basil which is called goa chang tap 九層塔 in Chinese, but the Thai's call is gum but woon 金不換
In a earlier review, there was also confusion between BASIL羅勒 and JAPANESE BASIL - Perilla 紫蘇葉[JIE SO]
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perilla
So anyway, the one that I tasted in the chicken wings was the Thai Basil (goa chang tap).
