For a more intense flavor, gently bruise the herbs before adding them to the bottle to release their essential oils. Experiment with different herb combinations to create your signature infused oil. Consider adding a clove of garlic or a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra depth. Sterilize the glass bottle by boiling it in water for 10 minutes, ensuring it's completely dry before use. This oil is best used fresh. While it can be stored for longer, the flavor intensity will diminish over time. If you plan to store the oil for more than a few days, consider using dried herbs to reduce the risk of spoilage.
