What to do with Basil Leaves

I have a Basil plant and it has grown quite a bit. I have also begun to prune it. However, I do not use alot of it at this point of time. Any suggestions on what to do with the basil I have just pruned but not using it immediately?

Make tasty-tasty pesto out of it! You can then store it in a freezer as well :wink:

I just have a plate in my kitchen where herbs dry at their own pace.
If you have a lot of produce - a fruit dryer is best.
