What are the different types of olive oil?Updated 3 months ago
* Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO): The highest quality olive oil, made from the first cold press of olives. It has a fruity, peppery flavor and is best used for drizzling, dipping, and salad dressings.
* Virgin Olive Oil: A high-quality olive oil, but with slightly lower acidity than EVOO. It can be used for cooking, but its flavor may be slightly altered at high temperatures.
* Olive Oil: A blend of refined olive oil and virgin olive oil. It has a milder flavor and is more affordable than EVOO. It is suitable for cooking at high temperatures.
* Light Olive Oil: A refined olive oil with a mild flavor. It is ideal for frying and sautéing.
