Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 ml Extra virgin olive oil
- 3 pieces Fresh rosemary sprigs
- 2 tablespoons Pink peppercorns
- 2 cloves Garlic (optional, peeled and lightly smashed)
Instructions
Pour the extra virgin olive oil into a clean, dry saucepan.
Add the fresh rosemary sprigs, pink peppercorns, and optional smashed garlic cloves into the saucepan.
Heat the oil over low heat for 3-5 minutes, ensuring it does not reach a boiling point. The goal is to gently warm the oil to help release the flavors from the rosemary and peppercorns.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the oil cool to room temperature. This allows the flavors to infuse further.
Using a fine-mesh strainer, strain the oil to remove the solids. Alternatively, you can choose to keep the rosemary and peppercorns in the bottle for visual appeal.
Transfer the infused oil into a sterilized glass bottle or jar with a tightly sealing lid.
Store the olive oil in a cool, dark place for up to one month. Shake gently before each use if the ingredients were left inside.
