- Grate the Carrots: Begin by washing and peeling the carrots. Grate them finely using a grater. The smaller the pieces, the better they will infuse with the oil.
- Combine with Oil: Place the grated carrots in a clean, dry jar. Pour the carrier oil over the carrots, ensuring they are completely submerged.
- Infuse the Oil: Seal the jar tightly and place it in a warm, sunny spot. Allow the mixture to infuse for about 1-2 weeks, shaking the jar gently every day to help the process.
- Strain the Oil: After the infusion period, strain the oil using a cheesecloth or fine strainer to remove the carrot pieces. Squeeze out as much oil as possible.
- Store the Oil: Transfer the strained carrot oil to a clean jar or bottle and store it in a cool, dark place. Your homemade carrot oil is now ready to use!
