Olive Oils
According to Paolo Villarosi, Editor in Chief of La Cucina Italiana, there are three main categories of extra virgin olive oil...
- Mild: light and sweet, ideal for fish, non-garlic sauces, cooked vegetables, cheese
- Fruity: more pronounced, best for grilled meats and vegetables and garlicky sauces
- Fruity-Spicy: robust, complements rustic dishes with assertive flavors.
The olio novello, newly pressed olive oil, has all the qualities of olive oil at its best. It is fruity, thick and flavorful. Savor it on breads, salads, vegetables and grilled foods.
