Seafood, such as fish and shellfish, benefits from light and fragrant olive oils that complement its delicate flavors. For grilled or pan-seared seafood, a Lemon Olive Oil or Persian Lime Olive Oil adds a bright citrusy note that enhances the natural taste of the seafood without overpowering it. Drizzle these oils over cooked fish or use them as a marinade to impart a fresh, zesty flavor.
Experiment with Flavored Olive Oils for Unique Pairings
For more unique pairings, experiment with flavored olive oils like the Blood Orange Olive Oil, which pairs beautifully with duck or other game meats. The citrus sweetness balances the richness of the meat, creating a complex and satisfying flavor profile.
Balsamic Vinegars as Finishing Touches
Don’t forget about balsamic vinegars when pairing with meats! A drizzle of Traditional Balsamic Vinegar over steak, or a sweet and tangy Strawberry Balsamic Vinegar on pork, can add depth and a finishing touch to your dishes.
