Some Good Things to KnowAbout Flavor Infused Extra Virgin Olive Oil

To get the most out of your flavored olive oil, there are some important facts you need to know.

Storing olive oil in a fridge will cause it to crystalize and start to solidify. That’s not necessarily a problem if you’re using the oil for cooking, but if you want to use it as a dip or in a salad dressing, you’ll want to bring the oil back to room temperature to get it in a fully liquid state before using it.

And if you’re worried that infusing EVOO with herbs and other flavors undermines its health benefits, have no fear. Even after infusion, extra virgin olive oil contains the highest quality of polyphenols and monosaturated oleic acid. Using our flavor-infused extra virgin olive oil offers the same great health benefits associated with regular EVOO.

These oils also make great beauty aids as well. Due to the intense aroma of the different flavored olive oils, they make a great addition to massage therapies and beauty treatments.

So, if you’re ready to begin using the best quality flavor-infused extra virgin olive oil, remember us at Sonoma Farm.
