Extra Virgin Olive Oil & The Most Commonly Asked Questions

By Jennifer Marie Anderson


Extra virgin olive oil is, in my view, one of the most unique products out there. Not only does it have its health-related benefits, which goes without saying, but there are so many different brands to choose from. With so many to account for, one has to wonder where the best oil lies. For those who are curious about investing in this particular product, here are some of the most important questions you would be wise to keep in mind.

"What are the nutritional benefits?" When it comes to the nutritional aspects of extra virgin olive oil, there's plenty to go over. One of the strongest benefits to consider would have to be monounsaturated fats, which are also known as "good fats." Antioxidants cannot be overlooked, either, as these help to maintain a strong immune system and reduce the risk of disease. These are striking benefits, to say the least, and each one should have the attention of culinary students and graduates alike.

"What should a bottle display?" Every bottle of extra virgin olive oil will have certain bits of information which will help purchases in the long run. For example, the harvest date is especially useful, since it'll let potential buyers know when the oil has been stored. This will also play into the expiration date, which I'll get into next. It's also worth noting the nutritional value, if you are especially mindful of calories and the degree of food you consume each day.

"When does the oil go bad?" You may also be curious about when a high-quality bottle of extra virgin olive can go bad. For those who do not know, this type of product can last for up to two years, meaning that you will not have to worry about said product going bad. It's just a matter of how well you store it, keeping away from heat and light alike. The sooner you take part in this, the longer that your oil will stay good.

Extra virgin olive oil, to say the least, has its fair share of advantages. You can clearly see this through the details given, though it's apparent that some oils will be more useful than others, depending on the brand and the practices it carries out. In order to learn as much as possible about oil - or any subject, for that matter - it's important to ask questions. Hopefully these will help you arrive at the answers which will help you make better purchases.
