I have lots of basil coming up in my herb garden. I would really like to
make basil oil for later consumption.
Here's my question:
My idea is to take a canning jar, fill it 2/3 with oil and then start putting
cut basil into it the oil filled jar. I would cut the basil with sissors.
And I would keep adding basil until the oil jar was mostly basil; a la pesto.
I don't normally refridgerate my oil. Will I have to now that it has basil in
it or does the basil act as a preservative?
Thanks a lot !
Phillipa
