I don’t know about you, but I love olive oil. There is something about this flavorful oil that makes me go crazy. Many people infuse olive oil, and for some reason it never occurred to me to do the same until I was on the train heading to New York City this past summer while reading the July/August edition of Every Day Food. Two of my favorite ingredients wrapped up into one jar of amazingness! I used this canister of garlic infused olive oil for a good two weeks (although I recognize that the recipe states you should only use for a maximum of 3 days. I kept my oil refrigerated and (when I would remember I would use it in my cooking). I also used ever single garlic clove that was soaking in that oil. It added even more flavor to my dishes! My next infused olive oil I want to try is rosemary! If you love olive oil and garlic I hope you will give this a try.

    Mmmm! Love garlic olive oil. Bet it would be great with a few red pepper flakes in there too!

    super yum! i love making infused olive oils, but you definitely need to be careful with storage, since there's a huge risk of listeria and botulism if stored incorrectly or for too long a period of time!

    usually, i'll just make micro-batches of infused oils to use for 4-5 days…i actually love doing small batches, because it gives me an awesome opportunity to experiment with different flavors and spices! 🙂

    I could see myself adding this to absolutely everything and then just using it to dip bread in. Yum!
