    Re: How much do you like Olive Oil?

    Always try and ensure I have it available. Chili or garlic infused for pizzas, etc, regular olive oil for the rest. If I've got to use an oil for frying meat off then I'd sooner have something I like the taste of. Might have to mix it sometimes, giving it a better chance of surviving at higher temperatures ... well, it works for me!
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    Re: How much do you like Olive Oil?

    Handy to have in the kitchen certainly, although I tend to buy good and use sparingly. Would never use just for frying stuff off though - there's better choices for that...

    What is it with all the polls being run over the last day or two (let alone the ancient thread bumps)? You do know I can make money by answering these kinds of questions online, don't you?!?

    Re: How much do you like Olive Oil?

    Olive oil is essential! Even if you don't want it as part of a dressing, the flavour is pretty much required for other dishes such as ratatouille and its great with herbs under the skin of a roast chicken. Personally I can't get enough of the stuff. Did anyone see the pitch on Dragons' Den ages ago where a man wanted to create an olive oil club along the lines of a mail order wine club? Although it was pretty expensive I liked the idea!

    I love olive oil especially the infused ones, very easy to make your own one as well, my favorite is adding tons of garlic, with some chilli flakes
