Flavored oils
Article Abstract:
Flavored oils are very handy pantry items as they add depth and strength to kitchen pantries and shorten cooking time because of their convenience. Flavored oils can be used for garnishing, dressing and as finishing touches to warm or hot dishes, as they intensify existing flavors, and can be paired naturally with all kinds of salads.
