Red Nasturtium Oil - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups red nasturtium petals (or petals-other colors may be used too)
1 cup safflower oil (or other neutral oil)
1 garlic clove, skinned (optional)

Preparation

Pour all the ingredients into a blender. Blend at high speed until smooth and colorful, about 3 minutes.
Pour the mixture into a glass jar and let sit for 2 days in a cool, dark place. The petals will settle to the bottom.
You may strain and use the clean oil, or stir and use with the flower petals.
