    I like that it’s very easy to make & l have a lot of serrano peppers from our garden. But what would this oil be used in? Any suggestions?

      You can use the oil to fry anything you like, for example, put a little bit on the pan and make an omelette, it will give the eggs a yummy flavor. Or add some drops when you are making a stir fry, or to top a pizza. Have fun Gin!
