If you haven't yet tried our incredible Mediterranean Herb Infused Olive Oil recipe, then go ahead and try it today. It is so easy! Just use the Cole and Mason Olive Oil Pourer and Epping Spray Mister to assist.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup high-quality extra virgin olive oil
• 2-3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
• 3-4 sprigs of fresh thyme
• 1-2 sprigs of fresh oregano
• 2-3 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed

1. Prepare the Ingredients:

   • Wash and thoroughly dry the fresh herbs. This will help prevent moisture from getting into the oil and potentially causing spoilage.
   • Peel and smash the garlic cloves. Smashing them slightly helps release their flavours into the oil.

2. Combine the Olive Oil and Herbs:

   • Using the Cole and Mason Olive Oil Pourer, pour the extra virgin olive oil into a clean and dry glass container or bottle with a tight-fitting lid. The pourer will make it easy to control the amount of oil you're adding.
   • Place the fresh herbs and smashed garlic cloves into the bottle with the olive oil. Make sure the herbs fit comfortably without being too tightly packed.

3. Infusing the Oil:

   • Seal the container with the lid and gently shake it to distribute the herbs and garlic throughout the oil.
   • Find a cool, dark place to store the container for about 1 to 2 weeks. This will allow the flavours of the herbs and garlic to infuse into the oil.

4. Using the Epping Spray Mister:

   • After the oil has infused for the desired time, carefully strain out the herbs and garlic using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth. The infused oil should be clear and aromatic.
   • Fill the Epping Spray Mister with the infused olive oil. This mister will allow you to evenly spray the oil onto dishes.

5. Enjoying the Infused Olive Oil:

   • The Mediterranean Herb Infused Olive Oil can be used to add a burst of flavour to a variety of dishes.
   • Spray it over freshly grilled vegetables for a fragrant and savoury touch.
   • Drizzle it over salads for an aromatic and herbaceous dressing.
   • Use it as a marinade for meats or seafood to infuse them with rich flavours.

Remember that infused oils are perishable and should be used within a reasonable time frame. Store the infused oil in a cool, dark place to extend its shelf life.

The Cole and Mason Olive Oil Pourer and Epping Spray Mister will make it easy to pour and distribute the infused oil, enhancing your culinary creations with convenience and flavour.
