Olive oil has been considered a healthy fat for centuries. It is a basic ingredient in Mediterranean cuisine, which is renowned for its health benefits. Always choose extra virgin olive oil. This is first-pressed and as little processed as possible. There is a wide range of olive oils, each with its own surprising taste. You cannot use every olive oil for frying. Depending on the quantity of monounsaturated fatty acids in the oil, you can use it for cold preparations or for cold and hot preparations.
