Preparation Wash the basil carefully and dry it well. Put the basil leaves into a bottle, add the extra virgin olive oil and the cloves of garlic.
Seal the bottle and store it in a dry, dark and cool place for 10 days.
You can leave the basil inside the bottle even after it is open, but you must always cover the basil with oil.
