Oil is an essential element in our home kitchens. We use this product practically every day, but not everyone knows how to store and preserve olive oil at home<\/strong>.<\/p> In this blog, we will show you our tips and recommendations to keep your oil in the best conditions<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Choosing the right container is a critical aspect of preserving the purity and quality of your olive oil.<\/p> Opt for dark glass, stainless steel, or ceramic containers<\/strong>. These containers not only protect the oil from light<\/strong> but also help maintain its temperature more stable<\/strong>.<\/p> Transparent plastic containers<\/strong>, on the other hand, are prone to allowing light penetration<\/strong>, which can trigger oxidative processes and alter the taste and properties<\/strong> of the oil. Additionally, plastic can release chemical compounds<\/strong> when exposed to heat, further compromising the quality of the oil.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Olive oil should be stored in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and heat. Exposure to heat and light can cause the oil to oxidize<\/strong>.<\/p> By exposing the oil to the sun, it loses its nutritional properties<\/strong>, durability, and the characteristic aroma and flavor that defines this product.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Close the bottle tightly after each use to minimize exposure to air, which can cause the oil to oxidize<\/strong>. The less air comes into contact with the oil, the better it will be preserved.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Maintaining a constant temperature when storing olive oil is key to ensuring its physical and chemical stability<\/strong>, as well as preserving its organoleptic and nutritional properties.<\/p> This care ensures that the oil maintains its quality and is a delicious and healthy addition to your kitchen.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Avoid mixing different types of oils in the same container, as each oil variety has its own flavor profile, aroma, and unique characteristics<\/strong>.<\/p> Combining different oils can result in a blend of flavors that may not be appreciated and, more importantly, may negatively affect the quality<\/strong> of the olive oil.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Pay attention to the expiration date on the container label. Although olive oil does not spoil easily<\/strong>, it is best consumed within its optimal freshness period.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Store the oil away from products with strong odors, as olive oil can absorb unwanted odors<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t Once you follow these tips on how to store and preserve olive oil at home<\/strong>, you will be able to enjoy this quality product for much longer.<\/p> If you need information, do not hesitate to call +34 690 613 790<\/strong> or visit our website<\/strong>.
