Olive Oil and Lemon - A Unique Combination
Do you remember the flavors of mom's
dishes? Regardless of our age and where we eat, we constantly remember the food
and flavors of mom's kitchen. But have you ever wondered what the flavor of
your dishes is? Many of us use
EVOO
oil to enhance the flavor of our dishes. But you may be interested in some
unique olive oils with a special touch. This blog will talk about
olive oil and lemon, a unique
combination for your kitchen.
We all know
extra virgin olive oil's
(EVOO) beneficial characteristics. This food has been consumed for thousands of
years for its properties and flavor. Among its most important properties are:
● Antioxidants
● Anti-inflammatory
● Antivirals
● Vitamin A
● Vitamin D
● Vitamin E
● Vitamin K
For this reason,
EVOO is known as
"
liquid
gold
." Then without a doubt, olive oil should be part of your diet.
But as we mentioned, maybe you would like to give your kitchen a special and
unique touch.
Lemon – A great companion
If we are going to mix the "liquid
gold" with something, it must be something just as unique, right? The
lemon is a fruit known for its unique flavor but also its many properties. And
that is why the lemon is one of the most famous fruits, loved by many of us.
The lemon fruit is rich in antioxidants and
vitamin C. Thanks to these antioxidants, lemon juice is an ally in fighting
cancer. According to one study, a little lemon juice was needed to reduce
breast cancer cell proliferation. Lemon acts as preventive protection against
many immune diseases. On the other hand, Vitamin C helps fight chronic diseases
such as asthma. In addition, vitamin C stimulates collagen synthesis, which
acts as a skin cleanser.
It is not surprising that thanks to all
these properties, the lemon is part of the diet of many people. Many of us
consume it for its flavor and
benefits
to healthy living and even to lose weight. So if heaven gives you lemons, don't
just make lemonade. Instead, combine it with olive oil, and make something
unique. What are the results of combining
olive
oil and lemon
, these two great earth products?
Lemon Olive Oil
You may wonder, what if I mess up my
EVOO by combining it with lemon? If
these products are already good separately, why combine them? You have a good
point. A combination of these products can go wrong if you combine poor quality
products or mix the quantities wrong. At We Olive, we understand that olive oil
needs care, and that is why we have perfected a combination of these two
superfoods.
You will find the
We Olive Organic Meyer Lemon Olive Oil in our olive oil stores.
Many connoisseurs have described this olive oil as soft on the palate, a bit
buttery, but at the same time with hints of citrus. What is the result of this
combination? It's like adding freshness and color to your olive oil.
In what foods or dishes can you use it? You
can use this olive oil with many foods as it is easy to combine. For example,
it is perfect for drizzling over
salads,
roasted vegetables, chicken, and fish. But that is not all. For example, if you
want to give a subtle touch of lemon to your desserts or pastries, you can use
it in your baking recipes. Since you will be using a combination of a
