Simple Herbed Oil
This is our daughter's first recipe! She loves dipping bread in the herb oil sauce at Bertuccis, so we come up with a simple version she can make herself at home. For additional flavor, fresh garlic and fresh herbs can be used. Originally served as part of: A Daughter's Recipe.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
- freshly ground salt & pepper
- red pepper flakes
Instructions
We pour the oil onto a saucer. Next, we sprinkle on the rosemary, rubbing it between our fingers. We freshly grate coarse salt and pepper and sprinkle with red pepper flakes. All we need now is good bread for dipping! We serve right away.

What's a kid job?
A Kid job is a step kids can help with, with a grown-up nearby, not one they do on their own. Every kid is different, so go by what your child can do rather than by age. Roughly:
- Little ones (about 2 to 4) can stir, pour in ingredients a grown-up has measured, tear lettuce, wash vegetables and sprinkle toppings.
- Older kids (about 5 to 8) can also measure and level, crack eggs, whisk, roll and cut out dough, and put things together.
- Bigger kids can read the recipe aloud, keep track of the timer, and take on more of the cooking as they're ready.
Steps with a knife, microplane, skewers, stove, oven, grill or hot oil, or with raw meat, poultry or seafood, are marked Grown-up. Kids can still watch those, from a safe distance.
Kid job
Pour the oil onto a saucer. Rub the rosemary between your fingers over it, grind on salt and pepper, and sprinkle with pepper flakes. Serve right away with good bread for dipping. Fresh garlic and herbs make it even better.
