Lady Di Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I would like to make my own herbal infused oils. I know that the herbs must "steep" in the oil base for 6 weeks. I'm wondering if the herbs ever get moldy, or does the oil act as a preservative? Can I use both fresh and dried herbs to do this? TIA.

Loretta Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 I really wanted to make infused oils and was pleased to see how to do it and how easy it is. I used my crockpot and did lanvender infused oil. It smelt a bit funny but I put it in a bottle and will see how it turns out.I then used dried marshmallow, I bought some and didn't know what to do with it so I thought - infused oil. Well, the only way I can describe the smell is - cat's wee!! it is awful. Is this what marshmallow infused oil smells like or did I do something wrong?
