HEALTH BENEFITS
Why eat it.
- ✓High in unsaturated fatty acids, particularly linoleic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid), which supports cardiovascular health.
COOKING TIPS
In the kitchen.
- 1Use as a finishing oil drizzled over salads, pasta, grilled vegetables, or soups to add a subtle, savory tomato flavor.
- 2Ideal for making vinaigrettes and marinades, pairing well with balsamic vinegar, herbs, and garlic.
- 3With a relatively high smoke point (around 450°F or 232°C), it can be used for sautéing and light frying.
- 4Incorporate into bread doughs, like focaccia, to add moisture and a unique, slightly fruity undertone.
STORAGE
Keep it fresh.
- Store in a cool, dark place, such as a pantry, away from direct sunlight and heat to prevent rancidity.
- Keep the bottle tightly sealed to minimize exposure to oxygen, which can degrade the oil's quality and flavor.
- For extended shelf life, it can be refrigerated, though it may become cloudy. Allow it to return to room temperature before use.
