What Does Acidity Level Indicate?
The acidity level is a percentage expression that shows how much the molecules that make up the olive oil have degraded. Olive oils produced from fully ripened fruits have higher acidity levels. As the fruit remains on the branch, it ripens, deteriorates, eventually falls off, and enters the decaying stage. Oils extracted from ripened fruits tend to be softer in texture compared to others. These oils are more suitable for use in hot dishes, offering a delicate balance and flavor when cooked.
Tips for Cooking with Olive Oil
Always use high-quality extra virgin olive oil for raw dishes like salads and dips.
For frying, opt for refined olive oil due to its higher smoke point.
Store your olive oil in a cool, dark place to maintain its freshness and flavor.
