Bread Dipping Oil
Description
This recipe mixes extra virgin olive oil with minced fresh rosemary and sage leaves, along with thyme leaves removed from the sprig. The addition of dried oregano and red pepper flakes adds herbal depth and a touch of heat. Lemon zest brightens the oil, while sea salt and fresh black pepper enhance the overall seasoning. The ingredients are gently combined to allow flavors to infuse.
The resulting oil has a balanced herbaceous flavor with subtle heat and a zesty brightness from the lemon. It serves well as a dipping oil for fresh bread, creating a simple but flavorful starter or accompaniment. Adjusting ingredient quantities can customize the flavor intensity to preference.
