Making homemade infused cooking oils comes with food safety risks, particularly for those infused with garlic and herbs. Infused oils can enhance flavor and food presentation, but the combination of oil, garlic, and herbs creates an anaerobic (low-oxygen) environment, which is ideal for the growth of the bacteria that causes botulism, which can produce a deadly neurotoxin. The publication provides essential safety tips, such as sterilizing containers and thoroughly washing and drying ingredients, to prevent contamination and ensure safe oil infusion. By following these guidelines, home food preservers can create flavorful infused oils without compromising safety.

Wild yeast fermentations are an emerging trend in brewing that can provide a unique sensory experience for the consumer compared to beers brewed with commercial yeast strains. Wild yeast allows brewers to put a local story behind their beers by using strains isolated from the nearby environment. While wild yeasts can impart fruity, spicy, or sour flavors in beers without the addition of adjuncts, the beer’s sensory properties, yeast attenuation, and yeast’s alcohol tolerance are unpredictable, and evaluations must be conducted to determine the flavor profiles in beers brewed with wild yeast.
