HOW TO PREPARE CARROT OIL?

Carrot Oil Instructions
Wash and peel the skin of the carrots.
Grate carrots with the use of a hand grater or food processor.
Place the grated carrots in a crockpot and pour the oil of your choice to cover. Note: I used 2 1/4 cups of oil or 18 ounces.
On your crock pot’s lowest setting, maintain a warm temperature — infusing the oil for a full 24-72 hours. Note: I use the “warm” temperature setting on my crockpot. Try not to allow the temperature of the oil to rise above 100-105 degrees Fahrenheit. You will notice the oil becoming orange in color.
Once the infusion process is complete, pour the carrots and oil mixture through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth and strain.
Reserve the oil and compost the carrots.
Label and store the oil in a glass mason jar in the refrigerator until ready for use. Will keep for 6-8 months if stored properly.
