If basil has flowered, it's best to pinch off the flowers to redirect the plant's energy back into producing leaves, which are the main culinary part. Flowering can make the leaves taste more bitter, so removing the flowers helps maintain flavor. You can also consider harvesting the leaves before the plant fully bolts. Regular pruning can prevent flowering and promote bushier growth.
