Dressing based on 98% extra virgin olive oil flavored with basil

Dressing based on 98% extra virgin olive oil flavored with basil, like all our extra virgin olive oils, is produced in our large mill, inside a large production plant that is an international point of reference for the search for the highest quality extra virgin olive oil. It is a concentration of technology unique in the world, created in collaboration with Pieralisi, world leader in oil machinery. Here, today, we can integrate our know-how and the passion that we put into our work every day with the best technologies ever.

To flavor our special Selezione Cutrera blend we use only natural basil flavouring. Basil is an aromatic herb typical of all Mediterranean areas. The most widespread and used variety in Sicily has large, fleshy and very fragrant leaves, it covers vegetable gardens and balconies starting from spring and expands its aroma for meters and meters. The essence is extracted from fresh basil leaves through natural methods that allow all the organoleptic characteristics of the basil to be kept intact and, obviously, all the taste and aroma to then be found intact in the dish.

It can be used in all dishes where you want to add the scent, aroma and delicacy of basil together with the oil-based dressing. The scent of basil in the kitchen accompanies all traditional Mediterranean dishes, from classic bruschetta to the very simple pasta with tomato sauce. But you can also indulge in all other vegetable-based dishes and in all first courses, from the simplest to the most complex.

Our aromas are exclusively natural and our olives are exclusively Sicilian. Many come from our own olive groves, others from suppliers in our network who we choose carefully and who share our same values ​​of quality and sustainability and who grow organically. Above all, we support small production: we maintain an intrinsic bond with the local community made up of olive growers and small producers who give our mills the best of their production. With a view to common development and with an important added value for our entire territory.
