Five Ways to Enjoy Greek Extra-Virgin Olive Oil Every Day

BRING MEDITERRANEAN FLAVOR TO EVERY MEAL WITH QUALITY EXTRA-VIRGIN OLIVE OIL FROM GREECE

Greek extra-virgin olive oil is a culinary staple because it works equally well with simple and sophisticated dishes, making it an essential ingredient for everyday cooking. Incorporating olive oil into everyday meals adds both flavor and health benefits associated with the ever-so-popular Mediterranean diet.

1. Bread Dipping Made Simple with Olive Oil

Fresh bread paired with Greek olive oil is an effortless way to enjoy its complex flavor. Pouring olive oil into a small dish and seasoning with a pinch of salt, pepper, and dried herbs creates a classic appetizer.

2. Homemade Olive Oil Salad Dressings

Greek olive oil is a fantastic base for fresh dressings. Mixing olive oil with lemon juice, vinegar, or herbs creates a dressing that instantly brings Mediterranean character and flavor to any bowl of leafy greens.

3. Roasting Vegetables with Olive Oil

For many classic Mediterranean recipes, roasted vegetables are a must. Tossing vegetables with Greek olive oil and seasoning, and then slowly roasting until tender with light caramelization, allows the flavors of the olive oil to absorb deeply into every ingredient.

4. Flavorful Olive Oil Marinades

Marinating chicken, fish, or seafood with olive oil, citrus juice, garlic, and herbs before cooking helps tenderize the protein. Additionally, this process evenly distributes the seasonings throughout the protein, ensuring Mediterranean flavor in every bite.

5. Finishing with a Touch of Olive Oil for Any Dish

Adding a final touch of olive oil over soups, pastas, or roasted vegetables is always a crowd pleaser. But beyond taste, it’s also healthier, as extra-virgin olive oil drizzled over finished dishes preserves the olive oil’s beneficial compounds.
