Discover how easy it is to make your own infusions with this slow cooked herb and spice oil. Perfect for marinades or drizzling over finished dishes.

4 cups mild olive, safflower, or grapeseed oil
1 cup packed fresh herbs like rosemary, basil, sage, thyme, marjoram, oregano or tarragon (or a combination)
OPTIONAL (any combination)
chopped garlic
dried chili peppers
cinnamon sticks
cardamom pods
coriander seeds
peppercorns
Place the oil and the herbs and spice in the insert of the slow cooker. Cook on low, uncovered, for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, and then turn the cooker off.
Allow the oil to cool for about 20 minutes, and then pour it through a strainer lined with cheesecloth or a clean paper towel or paper coffee filter into a metal bowl.
When the oil is completely cool, transfer it to a clean glass jar, cover and refrigerate for up to 1 month. After that, the flavor may fade.
The oil may cloud under refrigeration, but it will become clear again at room temperature.
