Natural
olive oil is also often named as native olive oil. It has a characteristic
green colour and a very distinctive smell.
In the mediterranean countries, no
cook could do without this oil, it is used for salads, frying
and roasting, although cannot be heated to such a high temperature
as many other oils..
Because of it’s taste and healthy unsaturated fat, it is
used more and more in Europe, for many salads and especially for
the popular pesto sauce.
