Incoming Janey rant!
Real Aromatherapists remember their first duty.... "First, do no harm"! Real Aromatherapists don't make a "Master Blend"! Real Aromatherapists blend to each individual's needs! Real Aromatherapists know "one size" does not fit all! Real Aromatherapists don't share their "blends" on social media or otherwise! Real Aromatherapists will include any contraindications if they write about a single oil on social media or otherwise! Real Aromatherapists are your modern day Apothecary and abide by the above.

🎃🍎 𝐏𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐤𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐂𝐮𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐎𝐱𝐲𝐦𝐞𝐥
The Oxymel goes in a completely different direction from the Extract, Oil, and Elixir. Here we’re deliberately bringing apple cider vinegar + honey into the picture, giving us tartness and sweetness alongside the pumpkin and warm spices. 𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐛𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐥𝐥 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝: 1 lb fresh culinary pumpkin, cut into ½–¾” pieces 1 whole vanilla bean, split 1 whole nutmeg, coarsely cracked ½ oz / 14 g Indonesian cassia cinnamon chips (Cinnamomum burmannii) 1 Tbsp whole cloves 3 cups apple cider vinegar labeled 5% acidity 1½–2½ cups mild honey, which we’ll add after extraction. Put the pumpkin, vanilla, and nutmeg into a clean half-gallon jar. Place the cinnamon and cloves in a small muslin or nut-milk bag and add that to the jar. Pour in the vinegar, keep the pumpkin submerged, and use a nonreactive lid. Start tasting around day 3. Once the cinnamon and clove have reached the level you want—often somewhere around 5–10 days—remove the spice bag. Leave the pumpkin, vanilla, and nutmeg to continue extracting for another 2–3 weeks total, tasting along the way. Once the brew reaches your desired flavor, strain and press thoroughly before adding any honey. Begin with 1½ cups, mix well, and taste. If it needs more rounding, add honey gradually, working up toward 2–2½ cups if necessary. The goal isn’t to bury the vinegar; you want enough tartness left to make this useful throughout the kitchen. Try it in sparkling water, shrubs, mocktails and cocktails, tea, cider, vinaigrettes, marinades, pan sauces, roasted vegetables, and glazes for pork and poultry. Pairing Pumpkin Spice Oxymel + Pumpkin Spice Culinary Oil + homemade Dijon also gives us a terrific starting point for an autumn vinaigrette. 𝐀𝐧 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭: Fresh pumpkin contributes a substantial amount of water to this preparation. I 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐱𝐲𝐦𝐞𝐥 rather than assuming vinegar and honey automatically make it shelf-stable. A shelf-stable version would need to be formulated and verified separately.

𝐏𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐤𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐂𝐮𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐎𝐢𝐥 — (𝐌𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐱𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝟏𝟔 𝐟𝐥 𝐨𝐳)
A couple of weeks ago I posted a Pumpkin Spice Tincture (a.k.a. Extract) recipe. I mentioned then I had a culinary oil as well. Took a little while to condense it from three separate notebooks, but here it is. The spirit of this pumpkin spice culinary oil is to bring fall to the kitchen. Feel free to use it as created, or add your favorite herbs and spices. 𝐎𝐢𝐥 𝐁𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐝 • 11.2 fl oz high-oleic sunflower oil • 3.2 fl oz pecan oil • 1.6 fl oz cold-pressed benne oil No benne? Use 75% high-oleic sunflower oil and 25% pecan oil instead. 𝐏𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐤𝐢𝐧-𝐕𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐚-𝐍𝐮𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐠 𝐁𝐚𝐬𝐞 • 16 fl oz prepared oil blend • 2 oz / 57 g completely dehydrated culinary pumpkin • 1 whole vanilla bean, split and cut into pieces • ½ whole nutmeg, coarsely cracked I especially like Seminole, Dickinson, Calabaza, or Kabocha for this. The pumpkin must be completely dry and brittle before it goes into the oil—no fresh or partially dried pumpkin. Combine everything in a clean, completely dry, heat-safe jar. Warm at 120–140°F for 4–6 hours. A temperature-controlled water bath works well; my favorite method is putting the jar right in my dehydrator for steady, gentle heat. Taste periodically. When you have a good pumpkin character rounded by vanilla, with nutmeg comfortably in the background, strain thoroughly. You now have your Pumpkin-Vanilla-Nutmeg Base Oil. 𝐂𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐧-𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 • 4 fl oz Pumpkin-Vanilla-Nutmeg Base Oil • ¼ oz / 7 g Indonesian cassia cinnamon chips (Cinnamomum burmannii) • 1 tsp whole cloves Combine in a small, clean, dry jar and warm at 120–140°F for 1–2 hours, tasting periodically. You’re intentionally making this stronger than you want the finished oil. When the cinnamon and clove are nicely pronounced, strain thoroughly. 𝐁𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐎𝐢𝐥 The cinnamon-clove concentrate is intentionally strong, so don’t pour the whole thing into your pumpkin base. Here’s the easy starting ratio: For every 4 fl oz of Pumpkin-Vanilla-Nutmeg Base Oil, add ½ teaspoon Cinnamon-Clove Concentrate.
