What is Olive Oil?

For those unacquainted with this staple ingredient of Spanish and Mediterranean cuisine, olive oil is produced by pressing freshly picked olives to extract the liquid from the fruit.

Rich in flavour, the oil extracted from the fruit boasts a plethora of culinary uses, from salad dressings, to frying, baking, roasting, and much more. Simply put, once you start incorporating olive oil into your weekly cooking routine, it will change the way you prepare food forever.

History of Olive Oil

The modern olive tree is believed to have originated in Mesopotamia and Persia, spreading later to Ancient Greece and throughout the Mediterranean stretch of the Roman Empire. The wide-scale production of olive oil dates back to the Minoan period of Ancient Greece, circa 4000 BC. The olive tree became a symbol of cultural heritage during the classical period, with olive wreaths being presented as prizes to athletes in the ancient Olympic Games. What’s more, its uses varied from culinary to ceremonial to cosmetic. Nowadays, the olive fruit is harvested in many parts of the world, including the US, and its consumption is on the increase due to its exquisite flavour and many health benefits.

Our Varieties

Extra Virgin Olive Oils

As far as pantry staples go, nothing beats extra virgin olive oil for its unique flavour. La Española is proud to offer a wide range of extra virgin olive oils suitable for a variety of cooking techniques. Our Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Gourmet Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil will help you to create mesmerising salad dressings. You can also use it for your everyday cooking if you’re looking to amp up the flavour. Worried about smoke points? Don’t be. Studies have shown that smoke points are not the best indicator when it comes to cooking oils. This is because during the cooking process, the heat is distributed evenly throughout the ingredients. The olive oil does not take the brunt of this heat and therefore doesn’t reach the temperature of its smoke point. This makes our extra virgin olive oil varieties as versatile as any other olive oil. The only difference is in the flavour!

Quality Olive Oils for Everyday Cooking

If you’re looking for mild-flavoured olive oils to facilitate the melding of flavours in your meals, we recommend our Classic Olive Oil and Mild & Light Olive Oil. Delicate in flavour, these oils complement a wide variety of dishes, allowing ingredients to reach their full potential. What’s more, they are especially useful when baking!

Olive Oil Blends and Other Oils

Are you the kind of home chef who enjoys trying out new things in the kitchen? How about sampling some of our unique cooking oil varieties? La Española Avocado Oil is a smooth and mild flavoured oil with delicately buttery tasting notes. Perfect for dressing salads or everyday cooking, our avocado oil is rich in healthy unsaturated fats and antioxidants, making it a healthy and flavourful kitchen companion. Alternatively, if you want the best of both worlds, try our Extra Virgin Olive Oil & Avocado Oil. Combining the benefits of both olive and avocado fruits, it’s a wholesome and versatile cooking oil with a unique yet mild flavour.

Choosing the right cooking oil for your dish can be tricky. Olive oil, with its unique flavour, adds its own unique dimension to dishes. However, if you’re looking for a cooking oil that’s neutral in flavour but just as healthy as oil, try La Española Grapeseed Oil. This mild-flavoured cooking oil is rich in nutrients but won’t overwhelm the flavours of your ingredients.

Alternatively, if you’d like to take your salad game to the next level, try our Extra Virgin Olive Oil Flavoured with White Truffle. With earthy, somewhat floral, tasting notes, this special flavoured olive oil blend is a favourite among restaurant chefs for a reason. In addition to this, it makes for a perfect pairing for pizza and pasta dishes.
