Basil Oil

Ingredients:
spices, basil, dried
spinach, raw
oil, olive, salad or cooking
salt, table

Directions:
In a large saucepan, bring salted water to a boil (about 1 gallon).
Plunge in the basil and spinach and cook until soft, but still green, about 1 minute.
Drain and transfer the greens to ice cold water to chill.
When cold, remove and squeeze excess water from the greens.
Pat them dry in a clean towel.
Transfer the vegetables to a blender.
Add the oil and salt and blend until smooth, about 3 minutes.
Remove the basil oil and use, or store for up to 1 week, in an airtight container.
