I took some herbs from the garden today...I am drying the lavender, chives and chocolate mint and I made a nice basil oil.
Here is how I did it...:
I took my olive oil and put it in my pan.
After heating the oil, I added the basil in torn pieces...
After turning off the heat, I let it cool to room temp, took out the basil and chopped it up small. I then added basil back in and froze it all in little cubes.
Be careful, these melt very quickly when out of the freezer.
These are great to toss into a sauce, directly on pasta or in a pan to saute anything!
Keep them in a freezer container until you need them.
Enjoy!
