Italian Olive Oil & Spices To Focus On

By Jennifer Marie Anderson


It should be noted that Italian olive oil can be consumed on its own, and understandably so. For many people, this is one of the most satisfying products, not only in terms of taste but nutrition as well. Of course, there are many food lovers who insist that different ingredients can be brought into the fold, which has more than its fair share of truth. As a matter of fact, here are some of the best ingredients that you should focus on.

One of the first potential ingredients to make note of, as far as Italian olive oil is concerned, would have to be pepper. Not only is this one of the simpler spices to bring to the table, but it's one that doesn't feature many calories, which makes it that much better. Along with incorporating a bit of unique taste, pepper comes with a healthy amount of manganese, which is required for the body to function properly. This is just one possible ingredient that can bolster your culinary endeavors.

Oregano may also be worth adding if you're looking to spice up your Italian olive oil. An ingredient like this is not uncommon in Italian cooking, whether it's a matter of pasta or what have you, meaning that some chefs may be more familiar with this than others. However, oregano users should know that vitamin K value will be at a high level, which is great to say the least. As a result, this lends itself to the overall effectiveness that oregano can have.

This type of olive oil may also benefit from the inclusion of garlic. This is a great spice in its own right, regardless of your familiarity with Italian cuisine. Along with its strong taste that most people can attest to, garlic comes with its own nutrients, the most prominent being vitamin B6 and manganese. As long as you add only a small amount - you do not need too much of this, after all - you'll start to see why garlic stands out so much in its own right.

Of course, one can make the argument that these are just a few ingredients and do not encompass everything that can be added. However, for the sake of enhancing the taste of your Italian olive oil, I believe that these are some of the most noteworthy. With that in mind, see if these match up to your tastes and bring them into your oil the next time you're looking to serve a fresh loaf of bread. You'll be surprised by the results you find.
