The 3 and 5 litre tins are designed for those who use extra virgin olive oil frequently and prefer to buy a larger quantity. They are the most suitable formats for family use, especially when olive oil is used every day in a wide range of recipes.
Which format should you choose?
The choice depends mainly on how much olive oil is normally used. For occasional use or mainly for dressing dishes raw, the 500 ml bottle offers a compact and practical format. The smaller size is ideal for more selective use, including serving directly at the table.
Those who use olive oil every day can choose the 1, 3 or 5 litre formats according to their needs. Larger formats reduce the need for frequent repurchasing, making them particularly suitable for families and regular home cooking.
How to use extra virgin olive oil in the kitchen
Used raw, it can be added to bread, bruschetta, tomatoes, salads, vegetables, pulses, fish and meat. Simple ingredients allow the oil to stand out more clearly, especially in uncomplicated Mediterranean preparations.
It is also an essential ingredient in sauces, pestos, marinades and many Sicilian recipes. In Trapanese pesto, for example, it combines with tomatoes, almonds, basil and garlic to create the texture of the sauce. Olive oil binds and completes the other ingredients, becoming an integral part of the preparation rather than simply a finishing dressing.
It can also be used when cooking vegetables, fish, meat and first courses. Its versatility makes it suitable from the beginning to the end of a recipe, from sautéing and finishing a risotto to adding a final drizzle raw.
