Why choose European?
- The olive tree has been revered in Europe since Antiquity. Over thousands of years farmers have evolved hundreds of varieties of olive trees (cultivars) and optimized them for different environment conditions and terrains to produce the most delicious yields.
- The result of this centuries old bond between the people and the land is the finest extra virgin olive in the world.
- The greatest impact on taste is the type of olive tree (cultivar), region (which affects climate and soil) and time of harvest. Europe offers a vast array of flavor profiles, so keep a variety of oils in your pantry for different occasions.
- Olives harvested early in the season, late August (varies by region), are under-ripe and produce oils that are greener, more bitter and pungent.
- Olives harvested at the end of the season, late November into December, are over-ripe and tend to taste mild and buttery.
- Spanish oil is typically golden yellow with a fruity, nutty flavor.
- Italian olive oil is often dark green and has an herbal aroma and a grassy flavor.
- Greek olive oil packs a strong flavor, aroma, and tends to be green.
- French oil is typically pale in color and has a mild flavor.
I love cooking with Extra Virgin Olive Oil. There are so many different recipes to create and re-create using the different varieties of EVOO. For more info about the Flavor Your Life Campaign, check them out on Facebook and Twitter.
