Tuscan Bread Dipping Oil

This is a famous recipe in our company’s history.  My business manager of more than 10 years knocked on my door one day and said, “Hi, I’m looking for a job and my 5 year old is obsessed with your Tuscan Dipping Oil that she tried at a local fair.  Are you hiring?”  The rest is history.

For this recipe you will need:

Combine the Tuscan seasoning with the vinegar and add the olive oil. Stir to combine.

Serve with sliced French or Italian bread and a sprinkle of grated parmesan cheese if you choose.
