🇮🇹 He is so happy to be explaining this. He is in the zone. 🇮🇹
I would love more tutorials from you guys. Even a “Invite to Dinner” w/ recipes. Just do it your style with your style of fun and humor… and love! “I’m tired of all the RUclips tutorials looking the same.”
Greek here🇬🇷 My family back home makes their own oil and sends it to us. Spitiko and Iliada are both really good Greek brands that you can easily get in the US for a decent price.
I've always said Greek olive oil is the best, especially from crete, but it's very hard to find unless you go online or buy in Greece. I live in Ireland and it's generally always Italian in supermarkets. Scottish rapeseed oil is a good alternative though to olive oil because it has alot of the health benefits, but you can use at higher temperatures.
Nonsense. There are many kinds of olives and olive oils, it’s very subjective, there is no “best”, unless you have tried every italian olive oil and every Greek olive oil. It’s the same as saying “USA is the best country”. How would you know?
Besides that, us Italians will stick with italian olive oils for the most part…
Problem is, Alessio, I'm from Liguria, and our olive oil is much sweeter than Tuscan oil. Having grown up with it, Tuscan oil is too peppery for me. Peppery doesn't mean better. The type of olive and also the type of soil makes a big difference.
thank you, this is indeed an important remark, and I also want to stress that the distance between the olive groves in Toscana and Liguria can be anything from a hundred kilometers to zero, because those two provinces border one another, and yet the type of soil makes all the difference!
I also have found the Entimio olive oil recently and will enjoy the robust over my daily salads otherwise to cook with is going to be Lucini. I learned about this about 2 years ago and so happy that you guys are enlightening as well!! Many thanks 🌼
Is Lucini good?
I'm a PROUD ITALIAN Man , and I too am very picky about My Olive Oil ; here in Maryland we have a store called , Redners , and after being disappointed by so many of the "Name - Brands" I decided to take a chance on their store brand , and it was Wonderful 😃 it's the ONLY Olive Oil I get now 🇮🇹 Molto Bene , Jessi : Alessio has taught you well 🇮🇹
Thank you for this!!! So frustrating….and we wonder why Americans health is so bad….☹️
exact! unfortunately the truth is that!!! and they lie to you even in advertising
@@ThePasinis I shared this with my family. Thank you for passing on your knowledge! 💕
You convinced me to go to the website and buy the 3 bottle set. I always did wonder why the olive oil at our fav Italian restaurant tasted different than the olive oil I brought in the store.
I love how serious he is about his food. However, can't lie, Italians know great food!
That pricing is the same with shrimp. We look for shrimp and seafood from the Gulf of Mexico, not China.
Another point to bear in mind is that olive oil is really fruit oil/juice that has expiration date. So avoid purchasing large bottle unless you can consume before it expires.
By the way I have used the expired olive oil to shine my leather shoes/belt instead of dumping it.
also on your feet etc
This video was so informative and helpful. Thank you!
thank you Lisa,let us know if you have any questions
@@ThePasinis I have a question. I have heard that olive oil burns and turns bad with heat when cooking. Is this true? If not, what olive oil is good for cooking?
The more information y'all can share the better. I love learning about real Italy and what real Italians like and how they live. It helps to incorporate the best into my own life. Thank you both
I ordered Partanna Asaro Sicily Grown Extra Virgin Olive Oil and it arrived today. I've never tried anything like it! I can taste the grassy, peppery notes quite strongly. Now I understand why you describe Costco olive oil as buttery. I can't wait to use the 'real' olive oil!! Thank you for recommending it and for this video! I'm half Sicilian and very ashamed not knowing this, but really nobody ever told me until now, lol. I love your videos!!
Is it important to consider - virgin - extra virgin - cold pressed - first press - when buying olive oil? Thanks for your videos. I enjoy.
Sometimes it is hard on a limited budget. Are there other olive oils that are good also in a different price range?
I very rarely use olive oil anymore for this reason.
I switched over to butter and ghee for frying/baking, and I only use olive oil for my homemade salad dressings/vinaigrettes
To be honest! NO!! I'm sorry :( unfortunately in America there is no good cheap olive oil available! no one checks quality and they sell you no good olive oil and they lie to you! this is the hard truth in this industry!
I dont think you're supposed to heat olive oil. Something about the heat causing it to break down and become toxic, similar to what he explained about the plastic taste when the bottles are in hot environment.
@@musingsofatradwife Somebody (can't remember who - maybe Sten Ekberg) made a list of heat points of various oils. Basically you can cook with any oil but they all have different heat points. Ghee is best for high temperatures. I only cook with Olive / Avoacado / Coconut oil if I know I will not be going very hot.
@@zogzog1063 that sounds more like what i thought i read. It was so long ago that i can't exactly remember. Thank you!
My husband’s parents are olive farmers! they import to Italy and the US! Their olives and oil are SO amazing
Well, I’m sold, thanks for the info, big time! Just ordered Entimio. 👍
So disappointed with the Costco olive oil because that’s been our staple the last couple years. Thanks so much for educating people about this!!
Is there a difference between Costco Olive Oil and Organic Costco Olive Oil?
@@mischellesinclair1393there is the point that they are both in plastic.
...And this whole time I thought I was eating healthier to only eat plastic! I never thought of this. Also, I never thought about why some things may cost more, including the fact about fair pay to the farmers. I would rather pay more for quality product and know that my money also helps support an actual family, not just some large industry who doesn't care about what they are serving. Your video has been very educational and will help me learn to choose a better olive oil. Thank you so much.
Can you do a cooking video? Chicken picatta? 🐔
yes, the cost depends on many factors, think that 1 liter of olive oil it takes a whole tree of olives so the big companies to mix the olive oil with other products such as butter
Fair pay for farmers is imporant I. Many things, including coffee and chocolate and all produce! The rate of the s word is higher among farmers than veterans, they are over leveraged and can’t provide for families
I often get my olive oil from The Fresh-Pressed Olive Oil Club. T.J. Robinson sources the 100% olive oil he offers from all over the world, and every one I've had has been great!
@@ThePasinis is Pompeian extra virgin olive oil bad? 😎👍
@@kingadjust6201 it appears so...that's the bad one in the taste test he did, he said it was "nothing" no good flavors like it should have had in it.
I’ve been using Braggs organic extra virgin olive oil . It comes in a dark glass bottle and says unrefined unfiltered first cold pressed. I would like y’alls thoughts on it please.
I've been buying Entimo ever since I watched your video, and we love it. It's worth the extra money to get the good stuff.
I love this content! I'm just trying to be healthier and not eat hidden plastic, Thank you!
Yep. Classico tastes just flat, oil & nothing else. There’s no spices aftertaste. Thank you for making this video! Now I know what to look for in olive oil!
THANK YOU for doing this video. I try to preach this to all of my friends. I adopt a tree in Puglia and get PLENTY OF Olive Oil per year delivered to my home directly from the olive Grove owners. I love knowing where my olive oil comes from. Mine is intenso and I hope it is high in polyphenols but I am not certai.
Love the dark/light chocolate comparison!
I would never buy imported oil. Do not trust it. I love California Ranch Brand 100% California. The burn is real
Loved the video. I never really realized how drastic the difference was and especially learning about how bad the plastic is and that the polyphenols are lost. Thanks for the info. I stayed in Italy last summer for a few months and the olive oil there just can’t be beat but I quickly forgot and returned to the Bertolli brand that to me is the cheapest with still good quality but now I’m not too sure
Thank you for the great tutorial and quality product recommendations. If we all start demanding REAL food and heathy options, then the prices will come down over time.
Another great video because I love olive oil and I never know if I’m getting a good one. 😄
This video is fantastic! Very informative. I will be saving to purchase from Entimio. Better for you and fair wages. Thank you!
Yeah that's what I've always known, that good olive oil comes in glass bottles, not plastic. And the good ones usually have that piece in the neck of the bottle that helps you pour it slowly.
Also olive oil in the can is the real thing, it keeps out the light.
@@malibu9899 In my country, we don't have olive oil in cans, only in bottles. Or maybe they do have them, but they don't have them in any of the places where I buy my olive oil. Up until now, I've never even heard of olive oil in cans!
I enjoyed this video very much. Could you do one on Balsamic vinegar. What do you guys use?
Thank you! I have seen and heard about these problems, but didn't know how to tell the difference. Your tips help a LOT!
I just found this channel and it’s already become a favorite! I adore you and your wife :) a beautiful relationship!!
What about the olive oil in the large tin can???
Recently Costco had 1 litter glass bottles of EVOO from "protected geographical indication" of Toscano (Tuscany) with very official looking seals like I see on Italian wines. What I bought was October November December 2020 harvest with max acidity of 0.5% I wish I had bought more than 1 bottle because I could not find it the next time I was there. I think it cost about $16, but I'm not certain. It is the Kirkland brand, their private label. It's really good. Reminds me of what my friend in Italy sent me from their parent's small orchard in Sardinia, or what I have had in Greece. I am wondering if you were able to try this? If so, what did you think?
we have it here in Texas now.. Good stuff !
Well booooo. I usually buy that Pompian Olive Oil, well... because Pompeii! No more, never again, ugh. Thanks for the great video, I appreciate it. Adding to the questions...... What about flavor infused oilve oils? Like the Garlic or Basil flavors?
Good thing I didn’t open the new bottle I just bought. I will take it back right away!!! This video was very helpful!!! Thank you so much!!!
You should have let them sponsor your video 😉 headed to the website now 👍🏻
Getting olive oil that is traceable from a single farm or single origin is a good wat to know it’s more real. There’s a brand that has a QR code when you scan it, it shows which family farm made the oil and you can learn about the family!
My grandparents are farmers. My entire family gets our cold pressed olive oil shipped over from them every year 😎. More than happy to share, Alessio 😉.
Olive oil is so expensive in my country that only rich people get to use it regularly so I don't know anything about it!
I lived 2 years in Istra (Istria) near Poreč (Parentio) nad on 23rd anniversary of elemenatry school prom my schoolfriends father have olive gardens, huge and he gives me unfiltered olive oil but incredibly good and how you say spicy, Istrian olive oils are among best olive oils.
I think since they have been using plastic bottles it has ruined the flavor. The plastic leaches into the oil.
I JUST GOT BOLIVE OLI FROM THE ITALY, MY ITALIAN NEIGHBOR want to visit her family ,it was exactly as u say low taste burn almost I did not like. BUT here such an olive oil on FRESH SALAD WHILE HEALTHY is maybe not great on salads?????
I love their extra Virgin Olive oil. It taste so much better and it definitely has a pepper taste to it!😍
7:32 LEACHING the plastic, so it can never be good storage in plastic. My first bottle of Etimio, I thought it couldn't come out of the bottle, but it's SEALED with a great cap and bottle! And yes, those olives are coming from Turkey and Spain this is puro Italiano/Greek! The olive oil you can drink is the best and I can drink Entimio. I just purchased another bottle.
Curious….what about explaining single point of origin on products (not just olive oils) and how you can tell when buying stuff. Also differences between Greek, Moroccan, and Italian olive oils. I have used Moroccan and Greek recently but the Moroccan is also supposed to be high in polyphenols…but mine did come in a plastic container….now I know…..
Hello. I have moved from California to Tn. Recently. Where can I purchase the Olio you suggest in Franklin Tn. Or Nashville. I am Italian American. I am struggling finding proper Italian items to cook with. Please help. Thank you , Gabby
Lake Garda: Best olive oil, lemons and limoncello!
There is also an oil museum.
Oh and if you are at the lake, check out Sirmione, the local zoo and "Vittoriale degli italiani"!
I thought olive oil is Italian until I did Greek history. Greeks bread and butter was export of olive oil. Rome ofcourse was an importer of everything including olive oil
As a cook... i really enjoy the information given today. Thank you!
Just took your advice and ordered the Entimio Distento olive oil. So flavorful! Thank you so very much for your advice!!!
none of the links are available
I have a serious question I love olive oil so much there is a shop in little Nashville Indiana Brown county called the wild Olive they make custom blended olive oils and balsamic vinegars that are to die for. The chili garlic olive oil is amazing on steak they have a dipping olive oil which is really good on French bread with butter mozzarella cheese thrown into your air fryer it's an Italian herb olive oil they have Italian EVO olive oils I mean I gave them as Christmas gifts one year and everybody was like I can't find this in the supermarket anywhere The intensity and the flavor and the quality of the olive oil is unmatched like night and day unmatched the intensity is what everybody enjoyed about the olive oils whether it was the bacon butter olive oil or the garlic infused olive oil or the urban fused olive oil the parmesan cheese olive oil for dipping I mean the list goes on and on and on but regardless I love your guys's content I wish I grew up Italian unfortunately I grew up white but my background heritage is British and Greek
I just looked at my bottle of Bertolli (my cooking oil) and yes, it does list numerous countries BUT the oil is not a mix. The box with the lot number and best used date has the country of origin, in this case it is ES - Spain. So read the label carefully. The list of countries are where the olives could come from but not necessarily for the bottle you’re buying.
Pompeian used to be in glass jars, now almost only in plastic. It does effect the flavor.
I love dark chocolate; the darker, the better. I'll eat baking chocolate with no sugar. 60% to me is mild.
It was clear, but when he said "buttery" or "battering" I could not tell. What did he mean when he said it was "extreme buttery"? Like did he mean like a taste of butter? Or did he mean it was better than the first one? Like "extreme better".
Can you recommend one that’s extra olive oil decent around 10-15 dollars?
I’m Asian American, so we don’t use alot of olive oil around the house to justify for it except for pan fry. We don’t cook like the restaurant where the food is dip and cover with oil and we don’t eat fry chicken, only air fry(healthier). And we don’t put oil on top of spaghetti or pizza like your other vids.
What brand of Balsamic vinegar do you recommend? I heard that Modena and Reggio are what's best.
6 minutes into this and I feel like I have wasted 6 minutes. Too much camera time on your face, not really sure which oil you are tasting, too much talking, taking too long to make a point. I gave up.
I buy my evoo in a tin from the Italian market, and store it in a metal dispenser without a lid just a spout, is that ok?? What about mafia-free?? I’m ordering your recommendation, grazie mille!!
In the US, you can just look for the northern American olive oil Association label. It’s a little red tomato about the size of a stamp that will be on the bottle. That at least tells you that it’s olive oil and not mixed with other types of oil.
Great information. I learned some things! Thanks for sharing!🙂
I've been buying the olive oil from California in glass bottles. Any information on this one you may have learned?
Same...I'd like to know too!
Have you guys ever tried Whole Foods olive oil?? I need to know if they are any good??😊 🙏🏼❤️
Both links say: “404 Page Not Found. The page you requested does not exist.”
Should you get an olive oil that is regular olive oil, virgin olive oil, or extra-virgin olive oil? And what exactly is the difference in each of these options?
virgin oil is made of cold pressed olives, extra virgin oil contains less amount of oleic acid and has true taste of olives (more expensive). Olive oil is a blend of cold-pressed and processed oil
@@mbagi thank you! I have always wondered but nobody ever had an answer for me.
I wonder, if you going to vacation on the other country which they don't have any Italian restaurant or cheese and olive oil, what will you eat guys?!
I’ve been buying O-Live from Chile, what’s your opinion?
Thank you for this! Going to find some better olive oil than what I currently have today. Trying to consume foods that aren’t full of chemicals and preservatives is so difficult.
Spanish olive oil is very good and healthy too 🇪🇦
I am too much on a budget to buy actual olive oil. I’ll live in my pretty bubble and continue to pretend things are okay.
If really good olive oil is shipped in refrigerated containers should this olive oil be kept in the refrigerator at home?
I love Trader Joe’s for olive oil. They have several varieties also. I’m going to have to try this test with them now to see if they are peppery. Any thoughts on their oil?
I’m so glad you talked about plastic bottles because I’ve seen that one at Costco and it always made me feel hesitant. you confirmed my gut feeling.
Trader joes is probably horrible too. You pay for what you get.
@@ruukibane301 no it’s not, it’s a good quality and priced well. I am of Mediterranean background, so I have high standards for olive oil myself. The Trader Joe’s brands though are on the buttery flavor side, not the peppery complex variety that you would get from a mom and pop shop.
Thank you for sharing, this was very educational. Do you cook with Entimio or how do you use it?
I love your videos! I have seen Alessio use olive oil on his pasta and I have started doing this. Which specific type of Entimio olive oil would you say is the best for this?
What about people saying you can put your olive oil in the refrigerator and if it solidifies it's real?
iI found, in the US, a good olive oil, not fantstic but good quality is the one sold at wholefoods
Alessio was shocked that Jessi could freeze the olive oil that he forgot to be offended.
Just learned Entimio won't ship to Alaska. 😭
There is a company I have in Texas that sells good olive oil that is real
I buy Colivita olive oil and that is one of the best olive oils I have ever tasted.
My family sends me olive oil from Puglia made from our families olive trees.
Lovely job of explaining awesome 👏🏻 keep it up.
I love that cat pot holder behind Alessio’s left side
I thought olive oil was not supposed to smell grassy
The Olive Oil links don't work anymore.
I love you guys!! I’m Italian my husband is Irish and we go all of this too!!
Would love to see more on this subject😃👍🏼
Extra Virgin Olive Oil taste like a faint banana taste. Sweeter!
We only use Lucini Premium Select, I hope that's a good one. Thanks for sharing!
I use that kind also, was using Colavita Premium Select but the Lucini is so much better.
Thank you for the info. Before I moved to another state, I lived near an Italian deli and market. I miss it.
Also I have heard that some companies are adding soy oil to the olive oil and selling it as olive oil
A lot of information here, but what oil do you cook with?
I went to their website which was very informative.
very happy to hear that!
Olive oil in a plastic-bottle is a no-brainer.🤮
When you say Costco it sounds so fancy!
It would be easier to dip the cup in warm water
