A L'OLIVIER olive oil with herbs of Provence, a Mediterranean seasoning oil from Nice
A L'OLIVIER makes this extra virgin olive oil in Nice and refines it with natural extracts of thyme, marjoram and rosemary. The result is a fragrant seasoning oil that captures the aroma of Provence in every bottle, mild in olive flavour and finely herbal on the finish.
How to use
Use the herb oil wherever a Mediterranean fragrance fits. Whisk it into salad dressings, drizzle it over tomato-mozzarella and bruschetta, add it as a finish on pasta, risotto and grilled vegetables, or stir it into dips and homemade mayonnaise.
Good to know: The herb aromas are heat-sensitive. Use the oil cold or only at the end over the finished dish, not for hot frying, so the fragrance and freshness are preserved.
A quick herb dressing in 3 steps
- Whisk three tablespoons of A L'OLIVIER herb oil with one tablespoon of white wine vinegar.
- Season with a little salt, pepper and a teaspoon of mustard.
- Toss the dressing through leaf salad or tomatoes and serve straight away.
What makes this oil special?
Instead of laying dried herbs in the oil, A L'OLIVIER uses natural plant extracts. This spreads the aroma of thyme, marjoram and rosemary evenly through the oil, the oil stays clear and the herb fragrance stays stable across the whole bottle.
