Herb or Chilli Infused Oil
There's no need to keep it all sweet and baking focused for last minute gifts either.
One of my favourite ever presents was a bottle of delicious oil that a friend had lovingly steeped for me and every time I used it I thought of her and was happy.
You just need a few stoppers bottles to start with.
You can make so many things here, here are a few suggestions, you can make last minute as they will infuse as they use:
Chilli Oil
1 Red Chilli plus a tbsp dried chilli seeds
Fill to top with Olive Oil.
Rosemary & Thyme Oil
Use a bushy sprig of rosemary and 3 sprigs of thyme
Place in the bottle, topping up with good quality olive oil to fill.
Limoncello
This famous Italian spirit is a fabulous and easy one to make.
You'll need 5 lemons, vodka and sugar.
You can adda little tag and some twine to any of these with your message:
