Oil Tasting
Flavored Olive Oil
The term "olive oil tasting"
might have left you thinking twice. Tastings are only
for wine? You may wonder. Why would we want professional
olive oil tasters when this
is a product that we don't consume by itself like wine.
But think about this, just as white wine
goes with fish, red wine goes traditionally with red
meats; olive oil has its perfect match in heaven too.
A great recipe can go wrong if you add the incorrect
condiment of olive oil. Cooking
with Olive Oil is in fact more than adding
a condiment to your food,
it is the art of blending flavors
in your cooking.
There are different flavors
of olive oil, some factors affecting this
is the technique in which the olive is grown, it could
be organically; the climate, the production
method, geography, all these conditions among others
are critical for the merit of the final product. In
addition, tasting of olive oil
is imperative to assess the imported olive
oil with the objective of ensuring we
are getting the product that we pay for.
Did you know that in the United States
the consumption of milder olive oil is more popular,
whereas in Italy the strongest
flavors are the most acceptable in the kitchen.
Now let's explore some of the terms a
"connoisseur" utilizes to describe the different
olive oils.
FIrst it is important to know that they
evaluate the oils by its acidity and flavors. They describe
the characteristics utilizing terms like undesirable,
like Brine or Bitter or desirable like Nutty, Soave,
Pungent or Peppery. I encourage you to become a
taster of olive oil in your very own kitchen.
