Olive oil, a flagship product of Mediterranean cuisine, embodies much more than just an ingredient. It is a centuries-old tradition, a sensory journey that transports the flavors of Italy directly into your dishes. Discover the fascinating history of Italian olive oil, from its varieties to the unique sensations it provides, to enrich your culinary experience.
Italy, the true cradle of olive oil, offers an incredible diversity of flavors and textures. Each region, with its traditions and specificities, gives rise to oils with varied aromatic profiles. Discover the most sought-after olive oils: extra virgin, virgin oil, and specialty oils. Each sip reveals a world of unique tastes, combining sweetness, bitterness, or more subtle notes of dried fruits and fresh herbs.
1. What is the difference between extra virgin olive oil and virgin olive oil?
Extra virgin oils are extracted without heat, thus retaining more aromas and nutrients. Virgin oil, on the other hand, is less pure but remains ideal for cooking at higher temperatures.
2. How should I store my olive oil?
To preserve all its freshness and aromas, olive oil should be stored in a cool place away from light, preferably in an opaque glass bottle.
