Servings 12

Preparation

Step 1

Make sure as much of the pith as possible is removed from your lemon peel.

Combine oil and lemon peel in a small saucepan over low heat.

Let oil and lemon simmer over low heat for approximately 20 minutes. You just want the oil to warm, not cook or spatter.

Strain out lemon peels, and pour oil into a clean dry glass container. (You can add additional lemon peels to the container if you want - if you don't want to have to keep this in the fridge, dry them first)
