I'm new to the whole flavoring of olive oil with herbs and have a few questions about it all.
1. How long do you leave the herbs in the oil? (like rosemary ... does it stay in the oil the whole time?) Will they grow rancid if left for weeks?
2. How long do fresh herbs stay fresh?
3. Do you refrigerate the herbs or leave them room temp?
4. When you freeze them, do you take them off their stems or freeze them whole?
5. How much herbs should be added to a 1 pint bottle of olive oil for good flavoring?
6. What herbs mix together well, especially for flavored oil?
That's it for now. I know this may be very simplistic, but it is totally new for me and I'd rather have some expert advice before I ruin a bunch of olive oil (and herbs)!!!
