Glass canning jar and lid (whatever size you want)
Calendula dried herbs (enough to fill ¾ of the jar
Olive oil (or oil of your choice)
Instructions
Start with a clean, sanitized jar (I run mine through the dishwasher.)
Fill the jar ¾ full with dried herbs.
Pour oil to completely cover the herbs and about ½-1 inch over the top.
Turn upside down to completely mix and return to right-side up.
Let sit in a warm, sunny place for 3-4 weeks.
Strain out the herbs with cheesecloth or muslim.
Bottle the oil.
Label with name and date on the jar.
Store in a cool, dark place.
Notes
Note: If you want an extra-strength oil, infuse your oil for two weeks and strain it. Add a new batch of dried herbs to the oil and infuse for an additional two weeks.
**It is very important that your herbs, the jar, and the lid are completely dry. Moisture introduces the possibility of mold growth.
