Dave,
Last week on television in a cooking program I watched, they did some
suggestions to make spiced oils and vinegar's to give away as X-Mas
presents.
They did the same with all the herbs, and peppers too, before they put them
in the oil etc.
for better preserving and to avoid botulism problems they said.
Hot regards
Rob
