Best olive oil from Italy
First grade extra virgin olive oil – This oil is produced exclusively by mechanical means and has a very low acidity (less than 0.8%). It contains no chemical additives and has the best health benefits. The aromatic olive oil is versatile, for example:
- Salad & dressings: Olive oil is ideal for preparing salad dressings.
It adds an intense flavor to fresh vegetable salads.
It is often mixed with balsamic vinegar, lemon juice or herbs to create simple but tasty dressings. - Marinades: Olive oil is an excellent base for marinades for meat, fish or vegetables.
Combined with herbs and spices, it ensures that the flavors are evenly distributed. - Pasta & antipasti: A drizzle of olive oil over freshly cooked pasta enhances the flavor of the ingredients.
It is also popular in classic Italian dishes such as bruschetta or toasted bread, often combined with garlic and tomatoes.
Antipasti such as pickled vegetables, olives or cheese also benefit from the quality of a good olive oil. - Fish and seafood: Olive oil is an excellent choice for drizzling over grilled or fried fish.
The fruity taste of the oil harmonizes particularly well with seafood and fish dishes. - Grilled vegetables: Grilled or roasted vegetables such as zucchini, eggplant, peppers and tomatoes are often brushed with olive oil before and after grilling to intensify the flavors and provide a juicy texture.
- Soups and stews: A high-quality olive oil is often used to refine soups or stews.
A drizzle before serving, for example in a tomato soup, gives the dish an additional depth of flavor. - Pizza: A drop of olive oil with garlic and chili over a fresh pizza, especially traditional Italian varieties such as Pizza Margherita, emphasizes the simplicity and quality of the ingredients.
