QUICK FOOD QUESTION .....HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mosschops30]

I am putting fresh basil into a pasta sauce. Do i just pull the leaves off and not include stalks?
And just noticed it says not to refrigerate and its been in the fridge since thursday ooops will it be ok?

just use the leaves - stalks won't matter too much but can be a bit chewy as they don't soften down as well as the leaves.

do i chop or rip?

put in right at end
