Health Benefits

Extra virgin olive oil is high in monounsaturated fats, polyphenols, and vitamin E — supporting heart health, reducing inflammation, and aiding brain function. Basil adds vitamins A, C, and K plus antibacterial properties. The healthy fats also help your body absorb the fat-soluble nutrients in basil.

Cooking Tips

Low Heat Only

Best used for finishing or low-heat cooking. High temperatures reduce the basil flavor intensity. Ideal for salad dressings or as a final drizzle.

Pair With Acidic Ingredients

Tomatoes, citrus, or vinegar create a balanced flavor profile that brings out the best in this oil.

Decanting Tip

Pour a week’s worth into a smaller dark glass bottle for easy daily use. Keep the gallon jug sealed and stored in a cool, dark place to preserve freshness.

Storage Tips

Store in a dark, cool place. Always close tightly after use. Best within 12 months of opening.

Conclusion

Sonoma Farm’s 1 Gallon Organic Basil Olive Oil delivers gourmet quality at great value. Whether you cook for family every night or run a small kitchen, this is the size that keeps up with your passion for great food.
