Healthy and delicious, olive oil is one of the main ingredients that makes every meal in Andalucia to taste wonderful.
In this region situated in the south of Spain we have been producing olive oil for the rest of the world for thousands of years. Our production was crucial in Roman times, when we exported oil to the rest of the Empire from Hispania. Romans did not used it only in their culinary recipes, but also for beauty purposes, as it being used again nowadays.
The main difference between olive oil and any other kind of oil or butter, is its healthy composition. Olive oil is free of saturated fat, and its flavor is so delicious that you can take it pure and uncooked in your meals or just on a toast accompanied by prietas as we do here in Arahal.
But do not be wrong, you must always ask for pure extra virgin olive oil (Aceite de oliva extra virgen), since many companies in

local production, and so they improve the quality
of their oils to sell them to the rest of the world.
