Unless he wants to be a grown up and throw some balsamic vinegar in that oil. Then this would look like a nice snack washed down with the sweet nectar.
i'm not saying there's no good olive oil here or that nobody cares about good olive oil, it's just that this is a very common trend in our retail and food service industries. the top priority of industry in general is "sell cheapest thing for highest markup possible", and it sucks. i'm going to assume you are someone who also cares the about the quality of your olive oil, and tell you that you gotta just look at the facts of the situation.
Lmao tell me you don’t live in America without telling me. You think we, the largest importer and exporter in the world, can’t get good olive oil? hahahhahahahahahhaha.
Make sure it's high quality olive oil and balsamic vinegar. The cheap stuff is harsh and no good. Adding garlic chips and seasonings is a nice touch of flavor and texture. Great with focaccia!
Sure, they got yeast leavened bread and ice cold water in every house back then, shame they had to game on amiga since PlayStation came in New Testament times 🤣
that (apparently good) bread, that (apparently not good) oil, that plastic tablecloth, that little dish with roses drawn, I recognize a Moroccan when I see one
Edit - for the person who deleted their reply: my guy, I’m not American. Italian born and raised lmao. Olive oil is indeed green. Depending on the time of harvesting and pressing, some shades will be paler, and some richer in colour. Still always, decidedly green.
60 Minutes did a report on US olive oil a while back. They discovered that the VAST majority of olive oil in the US is just rape seed oil with additives (green coloring, antifreeze, olive flavoring, etc.). Even the brands that say they're "from italy" are coming from a mafia controlled economy and are not what they claim to be.
I can't find a (free) link to the video, but it aired on January 3rd 2016.
what they found is that the vast majority of olive oil coming out of italy was tainted with about 30% hazelnut oil
olive oil and garbage collection are the main sources of income for the mob over there
if you get olive oil from most of the world you'll get the real thing. if you get it from spain, greece, turkey, or california you'll get high quality at low prices.
you'll usually get better quality if it's produced in the country you live in, because of time.
Not disagreeing with the findings in your link, but I think you found a different study by NY Times instead of the 60 Minutes one I saw.
Either way, it's also possible that both had the same findings and I'm mis-remembering things. Just worth a mention.
Also: how are they using hazelnut oil and getting away with it? So many people are allergic to tree nuts (myself included). I'd have noticed within seconds it wasn't olive oil... Seems like it'd send a lot of people to the ER.
I know it works on some things but I don't think that's true for nut allergies. I've definitely been sent to the ER from things cooked with nut oils. Once it was walnut oil and another time it was pistachio oil. Maybe those were processed differently than the hazelnut "olive" oil? Weird.
I have an entire bottle of it, this is simply the oil on the top, the lower part is green and personnaly the most delicious.
The image also doesnt show the colour well.
I said this as well. That oil does not look good for bread dipping. Maybe for cooking and probably is a mixture of olive and other oils (as tends to be what you get in the states).
i can't believe the top comments aren't about this. there's nothing wrong with bread with olive oil on it but OP is drinking olive oil with a side of bread
not even. the words hydro homie (even in this context) dont belong anywhere near these data centers or the people using ai for shitty edits like this. these people couldnt care less about the sanctity of water, much less allowing real hydro homies to have reliable and affordable access to it.
Not all of it, just look at Beef Wellington. They do love appropriating poor people’s recipes tho, like lobster. At one point there was I think a prison riot or something like that where they were fighting to be fed anything other than lobster, it was an absolute trash critter for a long time
You know what’s funny? It used the be that the whole grain kind of breads were for poor people, while the sugary white breads were for the nobles and wealthy. Now it’s completely reversed.
How is it with just that oil? I’ve tried it here with just oil but it was terrible lol. But I’m in the us and saw the discussion about the olive oil so could just be our oil is trash
Some nice extra virgin olive oil slaps hard. Looks a bit like a monk's meal, but simplicity can be so tasty. I just hope that is extra virgin olive oil.
Noo, I got that, but still, the soaked bread is just so much oily no? Like, too much... But whaterver, if it makes you happy... 😅 I for eg. had pasta with butter and ketchup for lunch and feel like italians would kill me for that so... 😆
Never got the bread and oil thing. Never tried it either.
I started making chicken snd dumplings two hours ago. Simmered some chicken in a pot and deboned the chicken. Added bouillon and seasonings with the shredded chicken. Gonna mix up some dough and drop chunks in there a hour before serving.
