Olive Oils are Infused or Fused with various flavors. Infused olive oils can still be Extra Virgin Olive Oil as adding herbs and spices enhance their tastiness. Infused oils are made by adding dried herbs (basil, peppers, garlic, onion) to the oil and allowing it to sit quietly in a cool dark place for a period of time. Infused olive oil is fantastic for making a special salad dressing, drizzling over a dish of pasta, simply as an appetizer served with bread for dipping, or marinating meats.
