When it comes to cooking, knowing your olive oil matters. Each type has its own unique flavor profile, quality level, and best use. Choosing the right one doesn’t just improve the taste of your dishes — it boosts your cooking results and ensures you're getting the best value for your money.
🥇 Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)
This is the highest quality olive oil, made from cold-pressed olives with no chemicals or heat. It offers a rich, fruity, and slightly peppery flavor that shines in:
-
Salads & dressings
-
Dips like hummus or tapenade
-
Drizzling over pasta
-
Finishing cooked dishes for added depth
If you're looking for bold flavor and premium quality, Molinera Extra Virgin Olive Oil is your top pick.
👌 Pure Olive Oil
A step down in intensity but still a solid choice, Pure Olive Oil has a lighter flavor that won’t overpower your food. It’s ideal for:
-
Everyday sautéing
-
Stir-frying vegetables
-
Baking where a subtle oil is preferred
Molinera Pure Olive Oil is perfect when you want a balance between flavor and versatility.
🔥 Pomace Olive Oil
Extracted from the olive pulp using heat and solvents, Pomace Olive Oil is a neutral-flavored, more affordable option. While it’s lower in quality, it’s excellent for:
-
High-heat cooking
-
Deep-frying
-
Bulk or commercial use
When quantity and heat resistance matter more than flavor, Molinera Pomace delivers.
đź’ˇ Blended (Mediterranean) Olive Oil
Blended Olive Oil, often marketed as Mediterranean Olive Oil, combines sunflower oil’s lightness with a hint of olive flavor. It’s a budget-friendly, versatile option ideal for:
-
Light frying
-
Grilling meats or veggies
-
Marinades for added moisture and mild taste
Molinera Mediterranean Olive Oil Blend gives you great cooking performance without the premium price.
