Method
- Blanch the herbs for 5 minutes in boiling water. Cool immediately in ice water to preserve flavour and colour. Drain in a sieve and press out as much water as possible.
- Put the herbs in the Thermomix and pour in the oil. Mix 30 min / 60°C / speed 4.
- Strain the herb oil through a very fine sieve and, if you like, even finer through kitchen paper or a coffee filter.
Liesbeth’s tips
- Works with almost any herb: basil, parsley, wild garlic, chives, coriander, and so on.
