Oil & Vinegar

Unaltered by temperature or chemicals, EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil) is the best quality olive oil available to purchase. It is recommended for cooking and is best for dipping bread, drizzling on salads, or finishing delicious dishes, EVOO is the most true in taste to the essence of the olive and boasts more of its nutritional value as well.

With an equally limitless potential for flavor combinations, infused olive oils can add the flavors of herbs, fruits, vegetables, and even smoke after the process of making the olive oil is complete.

These oils are are able to add something special to your recipe and spice up your meal. Enjoy the deep notes of dark nutty flavor in roasted almond and walnut. Or add a deep earthy aroma with either truffle oil.

Dark balsamic vinegars start with sweet Italian grapes cooked down at high temperatures in copper kettles which are then aged for years in wood barrels. Although consistently semi-sweet, the time spent in the barrel and the type of wood barrel used, contribute to the complex flavor varieties. From cheeses to fruit, from steaks to seafood, the versatility of a good balsamic vinegar should never be underestimated.

Lighter in color and flavor than dark balsamic, white balsamic vinegar is made using white grapes, cooked down at a lower temperature to keep its light color and is aged for less time. Described as having a “softer” balsamic flavor than its more familiar dark counterpart, white balsamic is excellent with salads or in marinades.
