herb question

The Woodlands, TX(Zone 9a)

Can anyone tell me if the variegated form of basil is edible, or rather I should say, good when eaten? This is the Ocimum basilicum ‘Sweet Aussie Variegated’. All of my other basil has bloomed and is beyond good, and I wondered, since this one hasn't bloomed, if I could use it for pesto. It seems to have a super strong fragrance, and I was afraid it might be overpowering.
