Finishing Oils - Extra Virgin Olive Oil Infused With The Essence of Gourmet IngredientsEven for dishes prepared with the actual ingredient, these oils can be used to create a fuller and stronger flavor. Black Truffles (Tuber melanosporum): Often called black diamonds, are usually used with hot dishes such as omelets, sauces or stuffing due to their pungent and lasting flavor. A few drops on scrambled eggs produces a special breakfast. White Truffles (Tuber Magnatum Pico): Often called Autumn Truffles, are even more rare than Black Truffles. Their distinctive, subtle flavor uniquely complements pasta, cheese, fish dishes, bruschetta, fondue, cold cuts, pasta, roasted meats and for seasoning risotto. A fantastic oil & vinegar salad dressing. Porcini (Boletus edulis): One of the finest mushrooms and exceptionally delicious. Their nutty, earthy & meaty flavor complements almost any dish or sauce - use to season risotto, pasta dishes and stews; wonderful for salads. Morel (Morchella) mushrooms are harvested for a limited time each year. Unique Morel Flavors & Aromas are Infused into Extra Virgin Apricot Oil. Simply add a tablespoon to your favorite dish. |

Enhancing Hint: A heavy oil, such as extra virgin olive oil, will hold a flavor better than a light oil. Heating tends to drive off some of the volatile aromatic compounds which give the distinctive flavor. For maximum flavor, add Flavored Oils near the end of hot dish preparation. |
