Taste, TASTE, TASTE . All the flavor you're putting into the pasta comes from the garlic and the basil. Dried just doesn't cut it. It would be like substituting garlic powder for the fresh garlic. You can try it, but I think you'll be disappointed.

Fresh is hard to get here too. And it's not cheap. I believe I had to pay $3 for a little tiny plastic container of the stuff -- it's in the produce section, of course, but not really with the produce; it's where they have the other fresh herbs.

If you still can't find the basil, wait 'till spring when it's in season. I really wouldn't waste my time with the dried stuff.
