Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1. Wash the basil thoroughly, shake it dry, and remove the thick stems. Rinse the lime with hot water and peel the skin into wide strips using a vegetable peeler.
  2. 2. Place all ingredients in a container with a wide opening. Pour in enough oil to completely cover everything. Seal the container and let it infuse in a cool, dark place for 3 days.
  3. 3. Strain the oil through a sieve and press the basil well. Transfer the oil into a clean, dry bottle. The basil oil is great for salad dressings, drizzling over crostini, and for steaming vegetables. Enjoy!
