•
Episode 160
Unlike wine, olive oil does not get better with age. In fact, as the oil gets older, it begins to break down. Its acidity rises and its flavor dissipates. Unfortunately, as it ages, its well-touted health benefits begin to disappear as well. But how do you know how fresh your olive oil is? Most people don’t.
But this week on FoodCrush, we’re getting answers to myriad questions about EVOO, from how it’s made to the remarkable flavors it can impart into a dish. Interested? Join us for a fascinating dive into the world of olive oil with Josh Saiia, co-owner of Oro di Oliva, a purveyor of fresh world class olive oils and balsamic vinegars for over 15 years.
