Easy Handmade Gift Ideas - Infused Herbal Oils

This Infused Herbal Oil is so easy to make and requires no cooking!
Will last up to 1 year so keep on hand for last minute gift giving.
This oil will get stronger as it steeps

You will need: Large bottle of Olive Oil, Head of Garlic, Mixed Peppercorns, Pink Peppercorns, Chili Flakes, Sprigs of Thyme and Rosemary and Decorative Bottles


First add peppercorns, garlic, chili flakes, rosemary and thyme into bottles, next fill with olive oil



Put on cap, label or wrap with ribbons, etc....
These oils will get stronger as they steep so I advise using within 6 months.
Keep away from direct heat and sunlight for a fresh tasting oil
Use in stir-fry's, salad dressings, pour over roasted chicken or pot roast, or use as a bread dip with balsamic vinegar.

I added the pink peppercorns for a festive look, all ingredients are optional and to taste.
Other flavors to consider....lemon peel and ginger, garlic parsley and sundried tomato...
