Coraggione

Coratina extra virgin olive oil, with its robust and intense flavour profile, is a prized Italian variety known for its bold bitterness, peppery kick, and vibrant notes of green almond, artichoke, and fresh herbs. Here’s how to make the most of this powerhouse oil in the kitchen:

• Grilled Meats & Vegetables: Drizzle over charred lamb, steak, or smoky grilled vegetables like eggplant and zucchini for an aromatic and peppery finish.
• Soups & Stews: Swirl a generous drizzle over hearty lentil, minestrone, or chickpea stews for a burst of complexity.
• Cheese Pairings: Drizzle over aged cheeses like Pecorino Romano or Parmesan for a gourmet tasting experience.
• Pizza & Flatbreads: Drizzle over wood-fired pizza or focaccia for a rich, savory touch.
• Bread Dipping: Serve as a dip with rustic artisan bread and a sprinkle of cracked black pepper and sea salt for an appetiser.
• Bitter Green Salads: Ideal for bold salads featuring rocket, radicchio, or endive. Combine with balsamic vinegar or a squeeze of lemon for a powerful vinaigrette.
• Caprese Salad: Elevate fresh tomatoes and mozzarella with Coratina’s robust flavoUr, a sprinkle of sea salt, and fresh basil.
• Sautéing: Perfect for hearty vegetables like mushrooms, artichokes, and greens such as kale.
• Marinades: Use in marinades for red meats and game, where the oil’s strong profile will penetrate and enhance the flavours.
• Roasting: Toss potatoes or root vegetables in Coratina olive oil before roasting for a crispy, flavourful finish.
• Pasta Dishes: Finish bold pasta dishes like Puttanesca, Carbonara, or Amatriciana with a drizzle for added depth.
