How many times have you thought about slowing down to be able to fully enjoy every moment in life?
The first step in doing so should take place in at the dinner table!
Experts suggest the secret to good nutrition is not only hidden in the quality of the food, but also in the time each of us takes to fully enjoy and savor what we ingest.
The production process of European olive oil is based on a simple but important assumption: for a product to be of good quality, it needs to be produced according to nature's pace.
Just think of what happens in the mills of the sunny Mediterranean lands: once juicy and ripe olives are harvested, at the right time of year, the extraction process of the oil can begin.
Time plays a pivotal role throughout the whole production process and even more in the kneading phase: the olive paste needs to be gently stirred to preserve all the organoleptic characteristics of an authentic natural extract.
This is why in Japan, European olive oil continues to be a favorite among quality-conscious consumers. Its quality is guaranteed by strict European standards, and its versatility allows it to be used across cultures and culinary traditions.
The European project Oliveoileu.jp aims to raise awareness about the history, culture and beneficial properties of European olive oil.
A project that brings European and Japan closer through food tastings, opportunities for discussions, news, recipes and much more.
To become part of this journey, visit Oliveoileu.jp for exciting, flavourful and healthy experiences.
Because everything genuine is meant to last.
Just like European olive oil.
