Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup olive oil Use high-quality olive oil for best results.
  • 1 cup fresh rosemary leaves, washed and dried Ensure the rosemary is dry to prevent spoilage.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Ensure that the rosemary leaves are thoroughly washed and dried.
  2. In a small saucepan, pour in the olive oil and add the rosemary leaves.
  3. Place the saucepan on low heat, stirring gently. Allow it to warm for about 20-30 minutes. Do not let the oil boil; you want a gentle infusion.
  4. Once the oil has taken on the aroma of the rosemary, remove the saucepan from heat. Using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth, strain the oil into a glass jar or bottle, discarding the rosemary leaves.
  5. Allow the oil to cool completely before sealing it in a jar.

Notes

Store the rosemary oil in a cool, dark place for up to three months. Always do a patch test before using it on larger areas of the body to avoid any adverse reactions.
