Hot oil for winter

Straight from a great Naga Morich crop from the balcony, here's the oil for the winter. 11grams of powder per jar.

If you dont mind me asking, what liquid did you fill it with?

Extra virgin olive oil. Capsicin is soluble in fat, and EVOO matches my cuisine (im in Italy) but any oil would do.

I like the idea! I think I'm gonna try this with some broiled, see if the smokey flavor comes through.
