Easy Herb-Infused Olive Oil

herb

Add herb leaves and oil to a blender and blend until completely smooth.

Add mixture to a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer for 45 seconds.

Strain into a bowl through a fine mesh strainer or chinois without pushing down on the mixture.

Strain again through a paper coffee filter into a medium-sized bowl. Let the filtered oil settle for a few hours, then pour it off the dark liquid in the bottom of the bowl, if there is any.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator, and use within 1 week.

This was a quick and easy win for some added on-tap flavor. Thanks for this!

Your recipes are spot on. I’m a chef and was looking for some fresh new ideas and found your blog. However, I would add salt and/or vinegar to prolong the shelf life and stave off bacteria as oil itself cannot.

An easy, flavorful dipping oil, perfect for light appetizers!

Roasted Garlic Dipping Oil

rosemary

Italian bread (to serve)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Slice the top off of the head of garlic, just exposing the top of the garlic.

Place the garlic, thyme and rosemary in a small, shallow baking dish and drizzle the olive oil over the garlic and into the baking dish. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 1 hour.

Remove from the oven, uncover and let cool until you are able to handle the garlic. Squeeze the roasted garlic out of the peel and discard the peels. Mash the garlic with a fork and whisk it into the olive oil-herb mixture. Serve with Italian bread. (Leftover oil can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 months. Bring to room temperature before serving.)

This infused garlic oil is easy to make and absolutely delicious.
