Ingredients

250 ml extra virgin olive oil
30 g rosemary needles

Metric - Us customary

Instructions

Take a saucepan and add the rosemary needles to it. The flavors of the rosemary come out best if you first bruise or chop the needles. Pour the oil on top and put the pan on low heat. You want to heat it but not bring it to the boil!
Once the oil is hot turn off the heat and leave it to stand quietly for 2-3 hours to allow the flavors to soak in. Filter the oil so that all the bits of rosemary are left behind. This is best done in something like a cheesecloth.
Transfer to a clean bottle and store in the fridge for up to 10 days. Add more rosemary flavor by adding dried rosemary needles in the oil.
