The Recipe for EVOO
Oil: the unique and irreplaceable condiment of Mediterranean cuisine.
But if we want to talk about the true must-have of Italian cuisine, we have to talk about EVOO.
I will try to answer simply by highlighting the importance of using extra virgin olive oil.
After reading this piece, we are sure that you will be able to recognize its quality and make the best choice, which is our excellence!
We are producers of extra virgin olive oil and we thoroughly know the properties and characteristics of this type.
Let's start by saying that
EVOO is the Best
Let's try to clarify and discover together how to distinguish this variety from others on the market.
Let's start by saying that EVOO is the best.
We do not venture this definition just because we are producers, but because there is no oil with the same extraordinary properties.
It has very low acidity and a delicious aroma.
Extracted from the cold pressing or milling of olives using mechanical means, it is a very pure product with an acidity level below 0.80% per 100g of product.
When purchasing oil, make sure that the label explicitly states "EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL."
Demanding the best comes with a higher cost, but it is justified by the quality.
Moreover, it is an antioxidant, contains monounsaturated fatty acids that reduce certain diseases and increase good cholesterol.
Thanks to its good resistance to temperature, EVOO is also excellent for frying, thus replacing sunflower and peanut oils.
It is the most radiant of ingredients, the one that best defines the concept of the Mediterranean diet, a lifestyle so precious that it is considered an intangible heritage of humanity by UNESCO.
A drizzle of EVOO, a clove of garlic, and a hint of chili, and there you have a tasty and enticing pasta dish; a few raw drops make even the simplest side dishes, salads, and boiled vegetables shine with character; still raw, to give flavor to grilled meats or fish, to make marinades or to prepare sauces like classic mayonnaise, to season bruschetta, in short, to season any specialty. And then in cooking, in sauces and gravies, and as we said, for light and fragrant fried foods, even for preparing fragrant and delicious desserts.
In short, the properties, quality, and goodness of extra virgin olive oil are the reasons why you should always choose it over any other alternative.
