Three Olives Olive Oil from The Artisanal Kitchen

When I grew up, oil meant vegetable oil. That's all there was. My mother never gave any thought to how healthy it was or whether it was gmo or if there were any alternatives. Vegetable oil was used for everything from frying to sauteing to baking.


With with more of a focus on healthy living today, we now realize that not all oils are created equal. Some oils are better for us than others. My oil of choice now is olive oil but not just any olive oil. I always look for extra virgin olive oil because EVOO comes from the first pressing of the olives and contains the most antioxidant benefits. Marty's doctor also told him that olive oil is a more heart healthy oil than other types.

I recently had the chance to try the Three Olives Olive Oil from The Artisanal Kitchen. Three Olives Olive Oil is certified grown and produced on one California estate, for ultimate quality control. It's called Three Olives Olive Oil because it is made from three different types of olives. From their website, the three types of olives are:

• The Fruity Arbequina


While ours are produced in California, this small, fruity olive is native to Spain’s Catalonia region. Soft-textured, and delicately flavored, it’s delicious served with pasta, salads or as an hors d’oeuvre.


• The Fruity, Slightly Nutty Arbosana


This small, more robust olive has a fruity, slightly nutty flavor with a more pungent, peppery kick. Its high polyphenol level are believed to help reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease.


• The Very Fruity & Flavorful Koroneiki


Originally from Kalamata, Greece, Koroneiki olives remind me of my homeland. They are very fruity, with a fabulous aroma, and help to make our olive oil exceptional quality.

The Three Olives Olive Oil has a very light and mellow taste.  That makes it ideal for dipping, cooking or dressing.  I used some to saute shrimp for my Seafood a la Arrabbiata tonight (recipe coming soon) and I have to say it was delicious!  For more tasty recipes, check out their recipe section.  I really love that it's grown and produced right here in the USA.   it's also unfiltered for optimal flavor and low in acidity (Below 0.5%).

Three Olives Olive Oil can be purchased directly from The Artisanal Kitchen or from select markets in New York City and New Jersey. You can connect with The Artisanal Kitchen on Facebook to keep up with all the latest news.
