I thought that seeing as we are on the topic of olive oil from our previous post that I would share with you some research that I have done into some very interesting and humorous uses for olive oil.

I have come across 3 very interesting blogs that I would like to share with you and that I would recommend subscribing to.

I would strongly recommend this to anyone who has enjoys the good things in life. It is a fruity oil with great flavour, being cold pressed it makes it far superior to extra virgin or ordinary olive oil.

Best used for salads leaves, drizzled over fish or chicken or straight from the bottle accompanied with a good quality balsamic vinegar & used for dipping. If you choose to use it on hot food rather save it till the end and add after cooking then you will not loose any of its great properties. It is good sized bottle to manage at the table as well.

If you are looking to cook with an oil I would rather recommend the Fairview Grape Seed Oil. (I hope to give you more info on this shortly with its many health benefits.)

I believe that South Africa has now realised the potential for making superior olive oils to compete with the rest of the world & its best to buy local where you can.

I hope you enjoy this oil as much as I have, its great to talk about this new products available, as when visiting a supermarket we are presented with a vast array of goods and we are expected to choose!

Enjoy and know that cold pressed olive oil has all the good fats in which we need so no need to hold back .
