Oregano from the garden

Make Your Own Oregano Oil

 

 

2 cups fresh or dried oregano leaf

1 cup extra virgin olive oil

1 cup extra virgin coconut oil

Warm oils gently,  add oregano leaf,  allow to sit in a warm place for 24 hours.  Drain herb from oil, pour oil into a glass jar, and use.

Uses for infused oil -

1. This my favorite oil for oil pulling. Not because of the taste but becasue of the properties of oregano.

2. Add to homemade salad dressing.

3. Oil pizza crusts

4. Take internally by the spoonful.

5. Rub on skin

I liked using the dried oregano better than the fresh.  I think it was stronger.

Have you tried infusing oil?  What type of herb did you use?  What did you use the oil for?

  1. Is this the same as the oregano oil one would buy in a dropper, but in a more diluted form?

    I have used it as I would another oregano oil. It is more diluted that what I have bought before.
