Lemon Infused Olive Oil

Step 1

Scrub the lemons very well. Using a vegetable peeler, cut off large strips of zest, being careful not to get the white pith.

Step 2

Place the lemon peels in a saucepan and add the olive oil.

Step 3

Bring just to a simmer over medium heat. Turn heat to low and let simmer for 10 minutes.

Step 4

Turn off the heat and let the oil come to room temperature.

Step 5

Pour into a sterilize jar through a strainer to capture the lemon peels.

Step 6

Store in the fridge for up to a month.
