Scallion Oil Garnish

• 4 scallions, white and green parts, thinly sliced (1 cup)
• 1/4 cup canola or other neutral oil

1. Have the scallions ready in a small bowl so they may be quickly added to the oil.
2. In a small saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat until hot.
3. To test, drop in a scallion slice; it should sizzle on contact.
4. Add the scallions and stir immediately to expose them quickly to the oil.
5. When the scallions have collapsed and are soft, after about 30 seconds, remove from the heat.
6. Transfer the scallion oil to a small heatproof bowl and let cool completely.
7. The garnish will keep for several hours at room temperature.
8. Or, cover and refrigerate for up to 7 days, then bring to room temperature before using.
