Coral Oil

Directions

1. 1
   Place the lobster coral in a blender for 20-30 seconds, or until smooth.
2. 2
   With the machine running on low speed, drizzle in the hot oil.
3. 3
   Increase to high speed and continue to blend for 15-20 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides occasionally.
4. 4
   The oil will continue to heat in the blender from friction and will take on a red-orange color (the coral will remain dark).
5. 5
   The longer you run the blender, the more color the oil will take on, but be careful not to damage the blender by overheating it.
6. 6
   Strain the oil by pouring it through a cheesecloth-lined fine-mesh sieve into a container.
7. 7
   Cover the oil and store in the refrigerator.
