1l good quality olive oil
200g spruce tips (young ones, with the papery cases still attached)

Remove the papery cases from the spruce tips then wash well in cold water. Now dry thoroughly (don't let any water get into the oil).
Add the oil to a pan and heat until just warmed. Place the spruce tips in a sealable jar, pour over the oil then seal the jar and set aside in the refrigerator for about 2 weeks to infuse before use.
This makes a wonderful flavoured oil for a vinaigrette an marries well with green salads or petal-based salads.
