INSTRUCTIONS
Combine all ingredients in a small bowl or jar and allow to stand at room
temperature for 2 hours. Brush vegetables or fish with the oil when
grilling. The oil will keep for several days in the refrigerator.
Hint: When buying olive oil, consider the use. You should probably buy a
good extra virgin oil for salads and a premium grade for pasta. For
deep-frying, grilling and normal cooking, buy the stuff by the gallon at a
good Italian or Greek grocery. The merchant will help you so that you do
not feel obligated to use the wrong oil at any time.
Comments: Infused oils for cooking and grilling are very "in" at the
moment. This one is from one of the young chefs at Kaspar's by the Bay, a
fine restaurant in Seattle. The chef, Steve Miller, is dilligent and
well-trained, insightful and hard-working. And why not? His boss, chef
Kaspar, is Swiss. He is good! You can also use this refreshing oil as a dip
for your French bread or as a topping for your baked potato. You will think
up other uses I am sure.
