Ligurian Riviera extra virgin olive oil: the characteristics<\/h3>\n
\nIt is the result of the perseverance of our ancestors<\/strong> who wanted to produce it with great determination. In fact, they were the ones who tried to create the space for cultivation in the hills of our hinterland. <\/p>\nEVO oil from the Rivera Ligure: a mainstay of the Mediterranean Diet.<\/h3>\n
\nIt consists of 99 percent lipids<\/strong> and is rich in fat-soluble vitamins<\/strong>, which are essential for our bodies, and polyphenols<\/strong>, which have antioxidant action.
\nIt should preferably be consumed raw in an amount of 2 to 3 tablespoons per day<\/strong>, as it is very caloric.
\nThe difference<\/strong> between olive oil and extra virgin olive oil lies in the pressing technique<\/strong> and the oleic acid content, which is lower in EVO oil.
\nFor frying, it is definitely better than seed oil, as it withstands high temperatures<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
\nThis is another reason why our Fresh Pesto has an exquisitely Ligurian flavor.<\/strong><\/p>\n
