Making black pepper oil at home is a straightforward process. Here’s a simple recipe:
The oil that removes uric acid from the blood, heals anxiety, chronic arthritis, rheumatism, and stops cravings for cigarettes and alcohol.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup of black peppercorns
- 1 cup of carrier oil (such as olive oil, jojoba oil, or grapeseed oil)
Instructions:
- Begin by crushing the black peppercorns using a mortar and pestle or a spice grinder. You want to break them down into coarse pieces, but they don’t need to be finely ground.
- In a clean, dry glass jar, combine the crushed peppercorns with the carrier oil of your choice.
- Seal the jar tightly with a lid.
- Place the jar in a cool, dark place, such as a cupboard or pantry.
- Allow the mixture to infuse for at least two weeks, shaking the jar gently every day to help distribute the pepper particles throughout the oil.
- After two weeks, strain the oil through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into another clean glass jar to remove the peppercorn particles. You may need to strain it more than once to ensure all the particles are removed.
- Store the strained black pepper oil in a clean, airtight glass jar away from direct sunlight. It should last for several months if stored properly.
You can use black pepper oil topically by applying it directly to the skin, or you can use it in cooking for added flavor. Just keep in mind that black pepper oil is quite potent, so a little goes a long way!
