FAQ
How should I store olive oil to keep it fresh?
Store it tightly capped in a cool, dark place away from heat and light. Air, warmth, and sunlight can reduce aroma over time.
What’s the difference between extra virgin and refined olive oil?
Extra virgin is made purely from olives without chemical refining and is prized for aroma and flavor. Refined or 'pure' olive oils are typically milder.
How much olive oil should I use for dipping?
Pour a small pool, add a pinch of salt and pepper (optional), and dip bread. It’s also great with grated Parmesan or balsamic.
