Olive oil and herbs replace Popeye and olive oil

Olive oil and herbs replace Popeye and olive oil

I guess I show my age, but it sounded like a chic title when they belong to my Generation, which loved that Popeye Oyl defended before Blueo / Brutus (see note below the two names).

Why we mix fresh herbs with EV olive oil is often asked. Let me show some answers with key points:

-EV olive oil (extra virgin) has little taste, so that you do not give your already spicy herbs

- EVOO is one of her healthier oils with little trans fatty acids

- EVOO acts as a preservative so that you can enjoy the flavors of fresh herbs all year round, as the oils are preserved in olive oil

- EVOO is not cloudy, so the colors and patterns of the herbs can be seen in a glass vessel.

In many recipes, most herbs are mixed in the last cooking steps, so that the time in which the oil is heated is very important. Evoo does not withstand long cooking with hot temperatures. Evoo disintegrates in such situations, so it is best for conservation as the finishing touches for the recipe. One of the best applications is the use of the Evoo enriched with herbs with a mild red or wine vinegar in a simple salad dressing. Shave a few parmesan strips over fresh spinach, sprinkle it slightly with the herbal salad dressing and enjoy a healthy, delicious treat.

- Blueo was the original name for the first two years of the cartoon figure and after two years Hanna Barbera decided that "Brutus" was more suitable. Bet that you didn't know that!
