How to make rosemary infused oil

If you want to add some nice rosemary flavor for your steak or a salad, there’s no need to invest in store bought products. Making your own rosemary infused oil is so easy and you can use a base of your favorite oil like olive oil, sunflower oil, grape seeds etc

Ingredients needed:

• Fresh rosemary sprigs
• Base of oil (I used sunflower oil as I wanted a soft flavor)
• Mason jar or a small glass bottle

Directions:

• Wash the rosemary in water and completely dry
• Place the herbs in a jar or bottle (you can lightly crush them first for stronger flavor).
• Completely cover with oil.
• Secure the lid on the jar.
• Shake and leave for 2 weeks.
• Place the jar in a sunny place.
• Shake once a day.
• After 2 weeks, strain the oil and pour into a clean jar or bottle.
• Throw away the rosemary plant that separated from the oil during straining.
• Refrigerate for up to 1 month.

Please note!

Rosemary oil can sometimes cause allergic reactions and should not be consumed by pregnant and nursing women.
