With our COOKWITHME Extra Virgin Olive Oil, you’ll not only enjoy an excellent oil for everyday use, but thanks to the high content of polyphenols, antioxidants and oleic acid in the olive varieties it’s made from, this oil has great stability, making it ideal for cooking.
Only olive oil is capable of withstanding a temperature of 180ºC without decomposing or losing its properties, whereas other vegetable oils deteriorate at that temperature. Furthermore, olive oil can be reused several times with full guarantees.
But olive oil is not only safer when cooking, it also has other undeniable culinary benefits, as at higher temperatures, the frying process is faster and the food loses fewer nutrients. Food proteins create a crunchy layer on the surface, sealing in the food juices and mineral salts, and allowing less oil to penetrate, therefore limiting the increase in calories. Also remember that olive oil enhances the flavour of food, transforming your fried dishes into a first-rate culinary experience.
