Branch and vine scallion olive oil

In small saucepan over medium heat bring olive oil to just a simmer with a few bubbles coming up. Add in herbs and steep for 2 minutes. Turn off heat, cover saucepan with lid and allow the oil to infuse for two hours undisturbed. Strain oil and herbs through a fine mesh strainer.

How long do infused olive oils last? Infused olive oil with removed ingredients will last up to a year or more if you store it properly – that means away from sunlight and in cool temperatures. It can last for 2-4 weeks in airtight glass jars or bottles at room temperature and up to a year in the refrigerator.

INFUSED OLIVE OIL FOR HEALTH Olive oil is also known to reduce inflammation, diabetes, Alzheimer's, heart diseases, arthritis, obesity and cancer, due to its antioxidant properties. So consuming herbs, vegetables or fruits to your olive oil will multiply its nutritional value!

Keep in mind that all cold infused oils need to be refrigerated. Moisture that's found in fresh ingredients may cause bacteria growth if left at room temperature. Keep your oils safe by refrigerating them shortly after you make or use them.
