Olive oil is a versatile and essential ingredient for any 4th of July barbeque. Its health benefits, combined with its rich flavors, make it a must-have for grilling.
Marinate your steak in a blend of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) from Verde Valley Olive Oil Traders, minced garlic, fresh rosemary, thyme, and a pinch of sea salt. Let the steak soak in the flavors for a few hours before grilling to perfection. The EVOO helps to tenderize the meat while adding a rich, herbaceous taste.
Create a colorful grilled vegetable platter by drizzling EVOO over an assortment of bell peppers, zucchini, eggplant, and cherry tomatoes. Season with salt, pepper, and fresh herbs. The olive oil enhances the natural flavors of the vegetables and prevents them from sticking to the grill.
For a refreshing twist, marinate chicken pieces in a mixture of EVOO, lemon juice, orange zest, and a touch of honey. Skewer the chicken with chunks of pineapple, red onion, and bell pepper. Grill until the chicken is cooked through and serve with a side of tangy balsamic dipping sauce.
Balsamic vinegar adds a burst of flavor and sophistication to a variety of dishes. Here are some creative ways to incorporate it into your 4th of July menu:
Create a mouthwatering glaze by reducing balsamic vinegar until it thickens. Brush the glaze over ribs during the last few minutes of grilling. The balsamic reduction adds a sweet and tangy finish that pairs perfectly with the smoky flavor of the ribs.
Toss fresh strawberries, mixed greens, goat cheese, and candied pecans with a balsamic vinaigrette made from Verde Valley Olive Oil Traders’ balsamic vinegar and EVOO. This vibrant salad is a refreshing addition to your holiday spread and a perfect complement to grilled meats.
Assemble mini Caprese skewers with cherry tomatoes, fresh mozzarella balls, and basil leaves. Drizzle with EVOO and balsamic vinegar for a simple yet elegant appetizer that highlights the quality of Verde Valley Olive Oil Traders’ products.
Don’t forget dessert! Olive oil and balsamic vinegar can also be used to create delicious, unique sweets.
Bake a moist olive oil cake using EVOO from Verde Valley Olive Oil Traders. Top with fresh strawberries macerated in balsamic vinegar and a touch of sugar. The result is a delightful dessert that’s both fruity and fragrant.
Simmer a mix of berries with balsamic vinegar and a bit of honey until the fruits break down into a compote. Serve over vanilla ice cream or Greek yogurt for a sweet and tangy treat that’s sure to impress.
