I was given this product, free of charge, for purposes of this review. All opinions are 100% my own.
Pompeian Extra Virgin Olive Oil is committed to freshness from harvest to table ensuring that only the finest olives are selected. Pompeian Extra Virgin Olive Oil is extremely low in acidity, which accounts for its robust taste and heady fragrance. The nuances of the flavor can be especially enjoyed in dressings, salads, vinaigrettes or as a table condiment for dipping bread of crudité.

Preheat oven to 375o F. In a small bowl, combine the flours, wheat germ, baking soda, and salt, and set aside.
In another bowl, using a handheld mixer, beat together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Add the olive oil, vanilla, and eggs, and beat until light and fluffy. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet until combined. Then stir in the chocolate chips and walnuts. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto cookie sheets. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until slightly browned at the edges. Do not over bake. Allow to cool on the sheet for 2 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. |
I also used Pompeian Olive oil to cook Oven Fried Turkey Breast. It came out so delicious!
