Lemon-flavoured oil recipe

Preparation:

  1. Remove the peel from the lemons with a sharp knife or peeler. The yellow bit, not the white pith underneath. Just the peel.

  2. Plunge the peel into boiling water for a couple of minutes to blanch it and remove any bitter taste.
  3. Put the peel in a glass jar and fill with Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain, then simmer the jar in abain marie for 2 hours so the flavours gently infuse. Leave to rest for at least 24 hours. Patience!
