Method:

  • Cut the flowers on a dry day and place them into a paper bag.
  • Place the bag in a warming cupboard for 2-3 days until flowers are dry and almost crispy.
  • Place flowers into a suitable jar and cover with olive oil.
  • Soak for 6 weeks keeping the flowers submerged beneath the oil.
  • Keep the oil away from humidity and rotate the jar every few days.
  • After six weeks, strain the oil out of the flowers with muslin and colander or sieve into a suitable bottle.

Rub into aching or tense muscles as needed.
