Robert's Dipping Oil (For Bread)

My sweetie and I found a store bought dipping oil that was great. We both like spicy oil and this was perfect. Well you might know, the stores stopped carrying it, so I decided to experiment and finally came up with this oil and we think it's better than the store bought oil. Hope you do too.
