Description
We use cultivated fennel from a species native to our meadows. Unlike the larger, modified varieties found in supermarkets, our ancestral fennel variety remains small but is packed with flavour. It imparts a unique and special aroma to our Extra-Virgin Olive Oil.
- Aroma: The fennel imparts a fresh, slightly sweet, and anise-like fragrance to the olive oil, complementing the natural grassy and fruity notes of the EVOO.
- Flavor: The combination of fennel and EVOO creates a harmonious blend of flavors. The oil retains its characteristic peppery and bitter undertones, while the fennel adds a subtle sweetness and a hint of licorice.
Salad Dressings: Use the fennel-infused EVOO as a base for vinaigrettes to add a unique twist to your salads.
Marinades: It works wonderfully as a marinade for fish, chicken, or vegetables, imparting a delicate fennel flavor.
Dipping Oil: Serve it as a dipping oil with fresh bread, allowing the fennel bits to add an extra layer of flavor.
Finishing Oil: Drizzle it over roasted vegetables, grilled meats, or pasta dishes to enhance their taste with a touch of fennel.
Baking: Incorporate it into savory baked goods, such as focaccia or breadsticks, for a subtle fennel aroma and flavor.
This seasoned EVOO can elevate various dishes, adding complexity and a gourmet touch to your culinary creations.
