Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is the highest grade of olive oil, produced by mechanically cold-pressing fresh olives without chemical refinement or excessive heat. This unprocessed method preserves its robust polyphenol antioxidants and monounsaturated fatty acids, which are linked to cardiovascular benefits. Recognizable by its vibrant green-gold hue and complex peppery, fruity notes, EVOO excels in raw applications like dressings and finishing oils, though its lower smoke point makes it less suitable for high-heat cooking than refined oils.
