This easy dipping oil recipe is bold, customizable, and guaranteed to impress—whether you’re hosting friends, planning a date night in, or just treating yourself (which we fully support). No cooking, no fuss, just big flavor and very happy taste buds.

🛒 Ingredients

For the Dipping Oil:

• ¼ cup Caramelized Garlic Infused Olive Oil
  (or Truffle, Garlic & Herb, or Tuscan Herb — go wild)

• 1 tsp dried Italian herb blend or Olivelle Bruschetta Herb Blend

• ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)

• ½ tsp sea salt

• Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste

• Optional: A splash of Barrel-Aged Balsamic Vinegar for a sweet twist

👩🍳 Directions

1. Pour olive oil into a small, shallow dish.

2. Stir in herbs, sea salt, and black pepper.
   Add red pepper flakes if you like a little heat.

3. For extra oomph, drizzle in a small splash of Barrel-Aged Balsamic Vinegar and gently swirl.
