Suggested Use
With its robust and dense body, this oil is recommended for uncooked condiments as marinades, salads, bruschetta, garlic and focaccia bread, raw vegetable dip, vegetables, fish and meat and all of those dishes in which you want to add a distinctive and characteristic note.
This oil should be carefully stored not exposed to heat or light, and best if used within the first few months. Since it is completely unfiltered olive oil, it has a naturally cloudy appearance and may contain a sediment at the bottom of the bottle. That deposit is a natural byproduct of the production process and it settles while the oil is decanting over time. Shake the bottle before use if you wish to include sediment when you pour for use.
