Presumably either a terrible idea or already a thing, not sure which.

I’m thinking crispy-fried-aromatics-in-oil, Mediterranean edition. Garlic, eschalots (aka scallions), thyme/rosemary/etc, vast quantity of parsley, peppercorns, lemon zest, fine-diced rye sourdough.

Jar of that in the fridge, use it like chilli crisp but for white-people food.

Is this a thing? Should it be a thing?

    Sort of sounds like a take on the Italian salsa verde. I’d do some research on whether or not fried garlic will prevent botcolism from forming. It’s a risk when making garlic infused oil. The other thing I’d worry about is the less sturdy greens wilting.

    You might want to look into he European red pepper sauces likes Mojo Pican, Hungarian ajivar, or romanesco for inspiration.

    Good luck and I hope you make something delicious.
