When I cook with oil, I prefer to use Olive Oil. I have a large bottle of olive oil that I use liberally when cooking, and also as a base for my salad dressing. The only problem I have when coating the bottom of my Teflon pans with Olive Oil is that the oil tends to congregate at the lowest point in the pan. No matter how many ways I've tried to "level" my frying pan, I always seem to get a deep end and a shallow end. Enter...Olivo!
Oro De Olivo is one hundred percent olive oil, it simply comes in a spray can. When sprayed from the can onto my pans, it coats with a fine mist that has a greater adhesiveness. The amount of oil that I am using when I apply Olivo is far less than I use when I coat the bottom of my pans with olive oil from the bottle. Hence, the Olivo requires less oil and coats my pan better. This is effective for cooking foods that do not need to be submerged in the oil. If I am frying up Mandoo (Dumplings), then it's time to "hit the bottle" again.
If I am in a hurry and don't have salad dressing already made, it is convenient to just spray my greens with a bit of Olivo and then season them. This gives the salad a little bit of flavor, without drenching it in oil. The can actually recommends this product to be used on salads, pasta, vegetables, fish, meat and breads. Because the spray applies a thin even coat, you get the flavor without getting the calories!
Oro De Olivo comes in several flavors, as well as an original that does not have any additional flavoring (I consider olive oil to be flavored in and of itself). The flavors that Olive is available in include Hot Pepper, Garlic, Butter and Lime. Olivo is a product of Spain, but is packaged in Mexico. It conducts business in the United States under Oro de Olivo USA out of Coral Gables, Florida.
