Black Pepper Olive Oil

Black pepper olive oil is a savory and aromatic infused oil that combines the smooth, fruity richness of extra virgin olive oil with the sharp, spicy bite of freshly ground black pepper. It’s a versatile condiment that enhances both flavor and aroma in a wide variety of dishes.

Flavor Profile:

• Base: Extra virgin olive oil, providing fruity, grassy, or buttery notes.

• Infusion: Cracked black peppercorns add warmth, pungency, and a subtle woody, citrusy edge.

• Mouthfeel: Silky from the olive oil, with a slightly dry, tingling finish from the pepper.

Culinary Uses:

• Finishing oil: Drizzle over grilled meats, pastas, or soups just before serving.

• Bread dipping: Pairs beautifully with crusty bread and a touch of balsamic vinegar.

• Roasted vegetables: Adds boldness to dishes like roasted cauliflower, potatoes, or mushrooms.

• Salads: Use as a base for vinaigrettes—great with arugula, radicchio, or anything peppery.

• Eggs: Try a few drops on fried or poached eggs for a gourmet touch.

Pro Tip:

It pairs incredibly well with ingredients like parmesan, lemon, garlic, or even a hint of honey—great for layering flavors.
