To Make the Lemon Balm Infused Oil: Place the dried lemon balm in a half pint canning jar. Pour in enough oil to cover the lemon balm completely, and fill the jar almost to the top. Leave a little room for expansion while infusing. Option A: For a stronger oil, cover the jar with a lid and let infuse at room temperature for 4 to 6 weeks. Shake the jar every day or two. Option B: For a quicker infused oil, place it in a small saucepan filled with several inches of water. Heat over a medium-low burner for 2 to 3 hours. Strain out the amount you'll need, then top with more oil. Store infused oil in a cool dark place.
