Ingredients
  

  • 2 bunches fresh chives
  • 250 ml neutral-tasting rapeseed oil

Equipment

  • 1 Nutribullet or blender
  • 1 sieve or tea strainer

Method
 

  1. Heat the oil to 60–65 °C (not too hot, so that the fresh flavours are preserved).
  2. Roughly chop the chives and place them in a blender.
  3. Add the heated oil and blend everything well until you have a smooth green liquid.
  4. Pour the finished chive oil through a fine sieve or a fine cloth – do not squeeze it, so that the oil stays clear.
  5. Then cool it down quickly over ice to preserve the colour and freshness.
  6. Pour into a clean glass bottle and store in the fridge.
