A Homemade Hostess Gift Idea

This oil keeps well, can be customized to your preferred heat level, and will quickly become a “secret ingredient” in the kitchen of anyone who receives it! You can use it on almost anything: marinades, sauces, stir-fries, eggs, grilled meats…

Just a few spoonfuls are enough to wake up a soup, a dhal, or a raw dish, such as my scallop crudo.

Why make this recipe?

It goes with (almost) everything: Just a spoonful is enough to transform a dish! You can use it anywhere, and it will quickly become a staple in your kitchen. Try it on my scallop crudo.
Better than store-bought: The flavors are sharp, the garlic and shallots are truly crispy, and the heat is perfectly balanced. No artificial flavors here!
Make it your own: Customize the heat level, the salt, the smokiness, and even the type of oil. Whether you prefer it milder or more intense, extra crunchy or more aromatic, it adapts to your personal taste.
The perfect gift (or not): Easy, quick, and budget-friendly, it’s the ideal hostess gift for the foodies in your life.
