If there is one thing that I love to do, that is cook. Not only do I love to cook, but I love to prepare meals that are healthy but at the same time, my family has to enjoy them. One of my go-to’s is Olive Oil. For my family, I have opted for a healthy alternative to cooking oil. I recently found out about olive oil from Koroneiki. I was recently sent a bottle for the purpose of review and I must say, I absolutely love it.

The olive used in Kasandrinos Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil is the Koroneiki which is grown in the perfectly warm and stable climate of the Southern Peloponnese.  Once produced via cold extraction, the Koroneiki offers a very balanced taste that combines a perfect mix of spicy and bitter. The olives are hand-picked from our century-old GMO-free trees and cold-pressed with only mechanical pressing methods. Every batch is given a chemical analysis. All olives used in Koroneiki’s oil are sustainably sourced from their olive orchards in Laconia Greece and are pressed within 48 hours of harvest.

 

What I really love is that the 500ml bottle was carefully designed by true Olive Oil lovers. The dark shade of the glass was not chosen simply for aesthetic value, but rather to help minimize exposure to light. Let’s face it, we all know that Olive Oil is preserved best in a cool, dark place like a cupboard. But it is very difficult to remember to store a bottle after each use! Combined with the personalized design of the label, the dark glass will not only keep the oil fresh but will look great on your countertop when you repeatedly forget to store it! The 500ml bottle has a screw-on cap along with a built-in pourer for easy use.

I recently used olive oil for my Roasted Cauliflower recipe. It was yummy, to say the least.
