Make your own homemade infused chili oil for a simple way to create great flavor in the recipes you prepare. For example, use infused rosemary oil to add flavor to keto pizza sauce. You can also add infused hot chili oil to roasted vegetables for a little extra zip. Infused Garlic oil is perfect for flavoring meat, poultry, or a homemade salad dressing. The list of ways to use these wonderful bursts of flavor is endless.
Make you own infused oil and save money
Unfortunately, it’s hard to find infused oils in the store and when you do they are usually pricey. The great news is they are simple to make. I’ve put together a couple recipes that I use that come together quickly. I love how they create an additional layer of flavor in my recipes with only a minimal amount of effort.
Homemade Infused Chili Oil
| Servings:16tbsp | Prep Time:5minutes | Cook Time:48hours |
- Wipe down your dried chili peppers to remove any dust or debris and air dry,
- Once dry, place the chili peppers into a clean sterilized jar.
- Add olive oil.
- Place the uncapped bottle in a slow cooker. Add water to the slow cooker until it covers about half the bottle.
- Leave the lid off the slow cooker. Set to low heat and allow the oil to cook for 48 hours. (Watch the water level and add warm water as necessary)
- Remove the oil, place the cap on and refrigerate until ready to use.
The oil may cloud up a bit in the refrigerator, but the oil is still okay. Once the bottle is removed from the cold and allowed to warm up a bit, the cloudiness will go away.
For best results use the oil within 1 - 2 months.
