- To a small sauce pan, add the olive oil and set to low/medium heat.You want the olive oil to be hot enough so that it releases the flavours of the prepared spices, but not too hot that it burns them.The olive oil will be ready once it begins to shimmer and its very warm to touch. Aim for the oil to be around 185-200 °F.The oil should never boil.
- Very carefully pour the hot oil into the prepared jar.The oil should sizzle when combined with the ingredients.
