So many people asked me if I could recommend a good quality olive oil from California. So I took a trip out west and found some of the best! Some of these California olive oils are worth buying... some aren't. Each one is tasted with no bias and is an honest review!

Too bad you did not extended your visit to Yolo Co and Butte Co. You might have been surprise at the quality of the oil and cured olives found there. Like so much of tourist who comes to Ca , they go to Napa and the stop, missing out of the other great wine and olive producing counties.

@littlepotato2741 Год назад

I used to buy bariani olive oil and their balsamic vinegar a number of years ago. I originally bought it because they used a old huge stone grinding wheel to cold press their olives. It was the first high quality olive oil that I had bought and it was delicious compared to the lower end olive oil at the supermarket (which was probably a blend of oils if we are being honest.) I took a look at their website a couple of months ago and saw they no longer have that deep description of their process anymore. I'm just sure if they have just updated their website or perhaps modernized their extraction process and didn't want to show that. I don't know, but I am looking forward to this video. Right now I'm just using Costco's olive oil as my main, but it would be nice to have a little variety especially over a salad, etc.

I asked California olive ranch what happened to the COOC stamp on their oil - it was missing. Here is the reply: Hello Richard, Thank you for reaching out! Our 100% California, 100% California Reserve Collection, , Global Blends, and Lucini EVOOs all feature a certification seal from Applied Sensory LLC, an independent, third-party sensory panel and certifying body. Applied Sensory certifies extra virgin olive oils from all over the world to the OOCC (Olive Oil Council of California) standard. You can be assured there are no other oils mixed with our extra virgin olive oils; no adulteration. All product ingredients are listed on the back label. Please note, to be certified "Extra Virgin" the oil undergoes both a chemical and sensory analysis. Both of these areas of testing are required to give olive oil the highest quality grade of Extra Virgin. We are no longer associated with the COOC. They certificate oils that are exclusively from California origin olives. We have hand selected and thoroughly vetted both our international and domestic farmers. We visit ranches frequently throughout the year, conduct audits and observe their production to ensure they uphold the California quality standards, the strictest standards in the world. We are not buying olives on the open market, but through developed and maintained partnerships. Further we have strict testing procedures and rigorous quality control measures in place from the time we select the oils to the time it arrives here in California where it is expertly maintained under our strict quality control parameters. We have control and are proactive through the entire life cycle of our extra virgin olive oils. The Applied Sensory LLC certification seal is located on the back label of our oils. The exact placement of the certification seal on the back label can vary per family of oil.

@AwareHouseChef 11 месяцев назад

Yeah. Any brand of really quality oil needs to provide this information if they offer a quality olive oil. Cheers and thank you for sharing. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OnUY6iHYHyY.htmlsi=4fUOHhiUaWzv7miG

I am trying to learn about olive oil for health reasons. I just received a bottle of California Ranch. My plan is to at least take two tablespoons a day. I am not a connoisseur, I just hope I will get the health benefits of extra virgin olive oil. I hope that I will with what I bought. I just want to watch my health I don't care if it tastes, good or bad as long as I receive the health benefits.

So Husary released their 2023 olive oil. He sent me a couple of bottles. Very complex, very delicious. Very good in salads. Very good for dipping. But different than the 2022, which is fine you can’t expect every year’s harvest to be identical. Nonetheless, it is really good, I hope you enjoy it!

I'm an old guy living in a small Kansas town. I have been cooking with Cobram Estate certified EVOO. In spite of my diminished taste buds, I like it. I also use it on salads. I am intrigued by the story and the taste test of the Husary Olive Oil. Would I be correct to assume that this would be used on salads and bread, as a drizzle, but not to cook with? Thanks for your great videos. I always learn a lot when I watch them!

Cobram is actually for dipping and dressing more than it is used for cooking.
