Extra virgin olive oil is not only a healthy, but also a tasty choice for any kitchen. Although it is technically suitable for cooking because of its relatively high smoking point (180°C), really good quality olive oil is recommended for flavouring dishes, as it loses its rich aroma during cooking.
The top-quality extra virgin olive oil can also be used as a seasoning: it can be poured over soups, pasta, salads, fish and meat when serving, or you can simply dip a good bread into it. Premium extra virgin olive oil is actually cost-saving: you can safely use less, because the taste is so good it will shine through.
The characteristics of premium extra virgin olive oil include many health benefits, including high antioxidant / polyphenol content. These ingredients can help protect the cardiovascular system, improve the gut microbiom, have anti-inflammatory effects, and contribute to improving general health.
Attention! Extra virgin olive oil should never be stored for a long time in a transparent bottle without a cap, because the quality of the oil may deteriorate due to the influence of light and oxygen!
