Overview
Olive oil lovers, rejoice—this is the cookbook for you! Discover the many flavors of EVOO, plus 80 recipes for cooking with your favorite oil.
Extra virgin olive oil is a foundational ingredient, but even if we use it every day, we still might not realize its full impact on a dish’s flavor. Let olive oil sommelier Emily Lycopolus guide you through the incredible world of EVOO: start with the basics—what does “extra virgin” mean? How is it even made? What makes it a healthy staple of the Mediterranean Diet?—and then move on to understanding the range of flavors that occur within different oils. Fruity, buttery, nutty, floral, herbaceous, vegetal, bitter, and spicy—olive oil is anything but neutral! Dedicating one chapter to each of these flavor profiles, Emily shares tips on how to taste olive oil and spot different flavors in stores—and then provides a range of recipes for the art of cooking with them.
After falling in love with olive oil at her husband’s family grove in Italy, Emily took her background in chemistry and deep love of food to devote herself to EVOO—gaining her sommelier and professional olive oil taster credentials along the way—and it’s all in this book:
As accessible as it is comprehensive, The Essential Extra Virgin Olive Oil Cookbook is an incredibly researched, food-forward companion for anyone who loves and wants to learn more about their favorite oil.
