Ingredients
- 2 cups pure olive oil
- 1 tin anchovy fillets
- 4 Tbsp. Herbes de Provence
- 4 garlic cloves
- 2 bay leaves
- Sprig of dried rosemary, as a garnish
Directions
-
In a thick-bottomed saucepan, gently heat the oil and the other ingredients over medium heat, until the oil begins to lightly sizzle. Heat for 1 to 2 minutes, but avoid frying.
-
Remove from heat and let cool. Strain the infusion through a fine sieve or through two or three thicknesses of cheesecloth, to save the crystalline and flavored oil. Empty it into a very clean bottle or jar. Garnish the bottle with a few sprigs of dried rosemary and store in the refrigerator.
