My daughters and I really like the bread dipping oil served at Bravo Cucina Italiano, a restaurant chain in the Pittsburgh area. There a several "copy cat" recipes on the internet, but I think those recipes are much too light on the tomato taste that is characteristic of the Bravo oil. After a couple tries, I think this tastes a lot like Bravo's, or even if it isn't, it is pretty damn good:
1/2 c. olive oil
2 t. sun-dried tomato paste
1/2 t. dried basil
1/2 t. dried thyme
1/2 t. dried rosemary
1/4 t. very finely minced garlic or garlic powder
salt (very little)
pepper
Whisk sun-dried tomato paste and oil in a bowl. Add basil, thyme and rosemary crushing them very finely with your fingers. Whisk. Add garlic and salt and pepper. If possible, let it all blend for a couple hours before using. Delicious.
yum!! ty :)
