Fresh olive oil can enhance and blend flavours and ingredients in recipes...
Cooking with olive oil helps to preserve natural juices and can provide a protective layer which helps to keep food fresh and crisp. In addition, it allows for aromatic herbs and spices to mix and prevents ingredients from sticking.
Olive oils, like wines, have different flavours and accents; they can taste fruity, sweet, tart, nutty or even grassy. Some oils are heavy and fully flavoured; some are light and have subtle flavours, so when cooking with olive oil -be guided by your own taste.
