Servings 2 1-pint bottles

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups olive oil /OR/ white wine or champagne vinegar
  • 1/2 cup fresh or dried culinary lavender
  • 1/2 cup fresh or dried rosemary

Instructions
 

  • In a saucepan on low heat the oil or the vinegar**. (**If heating vinegar, use ceramic cookware as the vinegar will be reactive with metal and ruin the flavor). Crush/muddle the herbs before putting in to release the oil more readily. Heat on low, almost simmering, but do not boil, for approximately 5 minutes. Let cool.
  • Pour the oil or vinegar through a strainer into a glass bottle with a non-metal cap. If you wish to add a decorative sprig of fresh rosemary and a couple of sprigs of lavender into the bottle it adds a nice flourish and will give a more robust flavor over time.
  • Let sit for 2 weeks to infuse further, checking the desired strength. After 2 weeks your infused oil or vinegar will be ready to use!
  • Use it for cooking chicken, lamb, or beef. Try it for roasting potatoes and vegetables, or just enjoy with fresh bread! Happy cooking!
