Novello '2010' Extra Virgin Olive Oil - 1 lt Review
This oil is fantastic. It is unfiltered, and while it may look a bit odd when you first see it (especially if you are used to crystal-clear oils), once you taste it, you won't want anything else. The oil, with its little bits of olive, has a very fresh aroma. Those bits also give the oil a texture that is more palatable than common oils. I received a bottle of this oil for Christmas and have used it daily since. The thing is, I haven't used it for cooking - just for dressing, topping, and dipping. I have resisted the urge to just take a shot of the stuff. I would think that one could cook with it in much the same way that one cooks with butter - I'd be worried about the bits burning over too high a heat. But honestly, it has been so good in its raw form, I've not seen the need to use it in the pan (we all have other oil for that). A few things - don't put it in the fridge - it will set up on you until it warms up again, and frankly, who wants to wait. Second, if you order a bottle, it may not look like the photo here because the oil has a 'vintage' of sorts (note the 2010 in the name) and it seems the manufacturer changes the labels from time to time. br /br /This oil may seem pricey, but for those that enjoy good olive oil, I strongly recommend it. Spending this much on liquor isn't a big deal to most people, and this stuff is at least good for you.
