Products Used:
Our luscious Blueberry balsamic vinegar is just as amazing over garden salad as it is over fruit salad or drizzled over chocolate cake. When paired with a delicate EVOO the intense blueberry flavor will shine. Fantastic with Orange or Lemon olive oils. Pairs well with blue and feta cheese. On pancakes and waffles, drizzle it on with our Butter olive oil!
Our Lemon olive oil is produced by pressing whole, fresh lemons together with early harvest, certified organic olives at the time of crush. Its light, refreshing flavor is just perfect to sauté shrimp or scallops or to drizzle on chicken or fish. Yet this versatile oil can also be used to bake sweets such as cookies, biscotti, cakes, and granola. It’s fabulous in marinades, dressings on salads, vegetables, and more. It pairs amazingly with the Blueberry, Raspberry, Black Mission Fig or Pomegranate balsamic.
