Olive Oil

With negligible cholesterol, few calories, and tiny levels of iron, olive oil is one of the healthiest cooking oils available. Olive oil, is a kind of vegetable oil, is also good for frying, grilling, roasting, and sautéing. Sadly, it is also inappropriate for spreading on toast.

Olive oil is made by crushing olives and extracting the oil chemically or mechanically. Green olives are preferred for this method since overripe olives might produce sour olive oil. Despite the fact that it is primarily produced in Greece, Italy, and Turkey, olive oil is available worldwide and can be found in most stores. Olive oil may be stored properly for up to two years; extra virgin olive oil may not survive as long.
