Take a glazed pan half full of grease or olive oil. Put in sweet mint leaves bruised (or whatever you like).

Place pan in hot water bath. Stir occasionally. After four or five hours pour into linen bag and squeeze grease through into pot again and fill with fresh leaves. Some people even use coffee filters or paper towels in a pasta strainer to filter. Repeat until grease is strongly scented.

Anointing Oil for Candles

  • 1 cup rose petals
  • 1 cup violets 1 cup water 1 cup olive oil 1 tbsp clove oil
  • 2 teaspoons powdered cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon powdered myrrh
  • 1/4 cup wild fennel seeds

Gather rose petals and violets at sunrise. Place them in a clean ceramic crock. Cover with water (fresh rain water, preferably) and let crock sit in a sunny location for three days until an oily film (the essential oil of the flowers) is seen floating on top of the water. Remove oil from water by carefully absorbing it into a small cotton ball.

Squeeze out oil into a clean, long-necked glass bottle. Add olive and clove oils, and swirl gently in a clockwise direction to slowly agitate oils. Next, add cinnamon, myrrh, and fennel seeds.

Seal bottle tightly and store it in a dark, cool place.

After four weeks, strain through cheesecloth and use to anoint candles.
