Olive oil refined
What is olive oil refined?
Refined olive oil, often referred to as olea europaea fruit (olive) oil, is a high-quality oil extracted from olives. This type of olive oil undergoes a refining process to remove impurities and unwanted flavors, giving it a neutral taste and odor. This makes it ideal for a variety of applications in the food industry and other sectors. Refined olive oil retains many of the healthful properties of olive oil, such as monounsaturated fats and antioxidants, despite the refining process.

How is olea europaea fruit (olive) oil made?
The production process of refined olive oil begins with the harvest of olives. These olives are first cold pressed to produce extra virgin olive oil. If the quality of the oil does not meet the standard for extra virgin or virgin olive oil, this oil is refined. The refining consists of several steps, including neutralization, decolorization and deodorization. During these processes, impurities, free fatty acids and unwanted odors are removed, resulting in a pure, light oil with a neutral taste.
The function of olive oil refined
Refined olive oil has several important benefits and uses. Its neutral flavor makes it a versatile ingredient in the kitchen, suitable for baking, roasting, and frying without affecting the flavor of dishes. In addition, refined olive oil has a higher smoke point than extra virgin olive oil, making it ideal for high-temperature cooking methods. Its health benefits, such as the presence of monounsaturated fats and antioxidants, make it a healthy choice for everyday use.
