GIFT OF THE DAY: Onsuri Extra Virgin Olive Oil
We’re teeing up our holiday gift list, starting with something that’s tasty, heart-healthy, and packaged in a “keeper” can: Onsuri Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Onsuri’s EVOO is made from some of Europe’s finest olive varieties. The groves are located in the heart of Jordan. Thanks to the hot, dry conditions, Jordan produces excellent olive oil. And why not? Olive trees were likely domesticated in one of three places: Asia Minor, Mesopotamia, or the Levant, in which we find modern Jordan. Greek, Spanish and local olive trees are tenderly cultivated on the Onsuri brand’s sustainable family farm, operated by the Bilbeisi family. The olives are picked and pressed within the hour, a hallmark of the best extra virgin olive oils with the lowest acidity. In olive oil, measuring free fatty acids is a highly technical way to measure quality, with 0.3% acidity considered the highest quality. Onsuri EVOOs contain less than 0.3% free fatty acids, meaning the company only uses oils pressed from the best olives, and with the highest production standards. Onsuri sells single-varietal EVOOs and blends. Each one offers a different flavor profile that pairs best with particular dishes.
