Tuscan Herb Dipping Oil
From The Kitchen · The Little Extras
An infused olive oil to keep on hand.
Ingredients
- 2 cups extra virgin olive oil
- Rosemary
- Sage
- Thyme
- Garlic
- Lemon zest
- Whole black peppercorns
How to make it
Warm the oil gently until just fragrant — never let it simmer — then tuck in the aromatics and pour into a clean, dry bottle. Steep somewhere cool and dark for a week or two, then strain. Keep infused oils in the fridge and use within a week — fresh garlic and herbs in oil can harbor bacteria at room temperature. For longer keeping, use dried herbs.
Best with: Focaccia, sourdough, grilled vegetables
