Luxury Experience had a great time in the kitchen creating special culinary recipes for you to enjoy using The Trentasette Collection Organic EVOO. This tasty EVOO is a delightful and tasty companion to culinary recipes and can be used as a dipping oil for bread, used in a vinaigrette, marinade, sauteing, or drizzled as a finishing oil.

This summer we made weekly trips to our local farmers market to buy tomatoes, which we paired with homemade bread, cheese, and olives, accompanied by The Trentasette Collection Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO), which we poured into a dish, added Himalayan salt and freshly ground black pepper so we could dip the bread. Served with an Italian red wine, it made for a lovely al fresco lunch on our deck.
