The priest will take a handful of fine flour and oil from it, along with all its frankincense, and will burn this memorial portion(E) of it on the altar, a food offering, a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

If your offering is a grain offering prepared in a pan,(K) it is to be made of fine flour with oil.
