The fatty acid profile of this oil is quite special and makes it suitable for cooking at high temperatures as much as for drizzling over your favourite dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOlive cultivation in Tunisia dates back as far as the 8th century BC when the Romans introduced it; since that time the olive has become an integral part of Tunisian culture with both culinary and cosmetic uses. Today Tunisia has the second largest collection of olive groves in the world after Spain, so olives form a significant part of their cuisine. We have chosen an exceptional quality oil that can even be used for deep-frying. Clearspring Tunisian Extra Virgin Olive Oil is produced near the town of El Fahs in the Zaghouan region of northern Tunisia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhy Tunisian?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTunisia is the largest producer of olive oil outside the EU, the 4th largest in the world after Spain, Italy, and Greece.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTunisia has the largest cultivated area of ORGANIC olive groves in the world (25,000 tons\/year).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtreme contrasts of the dry-heated summer and the cold winter with heavy snowfalls create the unique and ideal climate for olive trees to grow and thrive.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe olives are 100% hand-picked so the fruits are well cared for and wont be damaged before production.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTunisian EVO tends to be milder and fruitier than European EVO so its very versatile and suitable for everyday use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrganic olives grown in Tunisia are very competitively priced compared to Organic Italian olives.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIngredients\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrganic 100% Tunisian Extra Virgin Olive Oil\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllergens in\u003cstrong\u003ebold\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuperior category olive oil obtained directly from olives and solely by mechanical means.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDirections\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnjoy it in salad dressings and marinades, on pasta and cooked vegetables, and for all manners of cooking, even baking and deep-frying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecommended maximum heating temperature: 190C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eStore in a cool, dark place.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003e*Please note packaging may vary\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Clearspring","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56993414316419,"sku":"114105","price":8.57,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7837\/0237\/files\/0fdc405b-bce2-4856-b7fd-31f967e1ed99__05680.1673364448.1280.1280.jpg?v=1764951786","url":"https:\/\/www.vitaminplanet.co.uk\/products\/products-clearspring-organic-tunisian-extra-virgin-olive-oil-500ml-html","provider":"Vitamin Planet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
