The characteristics of Picual Extra Virgin Olive Oil are of a high intensity, so it should be used in foods with which it complements and does not suppose a superposition of this high intensity.

In the kitchen, Picual Extra Virgin Olive Oil is highly recommended for fried foods (it maintains its properties at high temperatures), red meats, breaded, battered, stews, as a preservative and as a dressing in salads or toast, that is to say, to be consumed raw.
