Basil Oil

1. Wash Basil.

2. Let basil dry thoroughly and then pat it with kitchen paper to dry it more (very important).

3. Put basil in bottles with a GOOD seal (I use german beer bottles with a porcelain, rubber and metal top) and cover with oil.

4. Leave for at least 2 weeks.

5. Use to flavour pasta, salads, potatoes, etc.
