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.

These bottles are perfect for storing sage infused olive oil to flavor sauces, roast chicken and turkey, or just to use for dipping your favorite crusty bread.

Lemon-Infused Olive Oil makes food taste fabulous! Don't miss this easy recipe that will bring a "wow" factor to salads, vegetables, fish, seafood and chicken.

Lemon-Infused Olive Oil

lemon

lemon juice ((from 1 1/2 to 2 lemons))

salt

Wash one lemon by rinsing it well. Pat it dry.

Use a vegetable peeler to peel the yellow part of the skin off the one lemon. (Do not use any of the white part, because it will be bitter.) Place the lemon peels in a small saucepan.

Squeeze 1 1/2 or two lemons until you have 1/2 cup of lemon juice. Add the juice to the saucepan, then add the oil.

Add a pinch of salt to the pan and stir. Heat the pan over high heat, just until the oil starts to bubble at the edges. (Do not boil.) Then put the heat on low and let the lemon oil steep for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Move the pan off the heat and let the lemon-infused oil cool for an hour at room temperature.

Use a fine-mesh strainer to strain the oil into a plastic container or into a funnel placed in a glass bottle. Store the lemon-infused olive oil in a sealed bottle or container in the refrigerator for a few weeks. The oil will solidify on top, while the lemon juice remains on the bottom, so you'll need to run the bottle or container under very warm water, then shake before using.

Infused Olive Oil Recipes

Olive Oil

Rosemary

Thyme

Oregano

Citric Acid

Water

Fresh Rosemary (reserve a sprig for bottle)

Fresh Thyme (keep a small sprig for the bottle)

Oregano (reserve a sprig for the bottle)

Lemons, peel only (reserve some peel

Thyme (reserve a sprig for the bottle)

Garlic (coarsely chopped in 1/4-inch pieces)

- 7 Dried Chilis (sliced down the middle)

Basil

Parsley

If the flavor you choose does not need to be acidified skip to &quot;Infuse&quot; otherwise follow the steps to acidify the garlic or herbs.

Place either the garlic or the herbs in the bottom of the medium bowl (the garlic needs a different amount of solution so it cannot be combined with the herbs).

Mix the appropriate amount of citric acid with the coordinating amount of water and pour over the herbs or garlic (the amounts of citric acid and water are listed for each flavor and was specifically determined based on the combination and amount of herbs or garlic).

Nest the smaller bowl on top of the herbs and or garlic so they are fully submerged in the solution. You can pour some water into the smaller bowl to weigh it down.

Allow the garlic or herbs to soak at room temperature for 24 hours, which allows the acid to fully penetrate the ingredients and bring the acidity beyond the growth limit for bacteria.

Acidify

Clip a candy thermometer to the size of a medium-sized saucepan and heat the oil to 140º F.

Remove the herbs or garlic from the acidic solution and pat dry. Place in the oil. If flavor doesn&#39;t require acidifying then just add the ingredients to the oil.

Heat for a maximum of 5 minutes to infuse the most amount of flavor. Anytime over 5 minutes may damage the oil.

Strain the herbs or peels out of the oil and pour it into a prepared jar.

Infuse

Add any decorative ingredients such as lemon peel or sprigs of fresh herbs (as long as they have been acidified) to the desired bottle.

Strain the oil through a cheesecloth or a small strainer into a measuring cup to remove any particles from the oil.

Arrange the small funnel on top of the bottle and pour the infused olive oil into the bottle and seal with the top or cork.

Place the oil away from heat and light and keep it in the fridge for a longer shelf-life.

Store

This rosemary and lemon infused olive oil is an easy way to add flavor to pastas, salads, breads and more!

Rosemary &amp; Lemon Infused Olive Oil

rosemary (fresh)

oregano

tsp sea salt

tsp crushed red pepper

Select a glass bottle that is large enough to hold two cups of oil or use two smaller bottles (per note no. 2). The bottle must have an air tight cap/ top.

Drop the garlic (roasted or raw, per note no. 1) and dry ingredients into the bottle.

Place the lemon slices inside of the bottle, pressing to stay against the sides. Also place the fresh rosemary inside, in a standing position.

Slowly pour the oil into the jar using a funnel. You can tilt the jar so the oil falls through the sides and not harshly over the ingredients. This may still stir the ingredients but eventually they will settle into the bottom.

Keep refrigerated. Use within 10 days

Me encanto la receta, lástima que dure tan poco tiempo. Hay alguna forma de que pueda alargar el tiempo de conservación?

I just infused some extra virgin olive oil with a bunch of fresh rosemary, 3 bay leaves, coriander, tyme, poultry seasoning and fresh lemon zest. I'm going to brush this on my Thanksgiving turkey before it goes in the oven. Ab experiment yes, but I'm a decent cook and I think this is going to turn out pretty good! Do you all think I should maybe put slices of lemon in it to add to the flavor? Not sure if the zest will be enough. Thank you!
