How to Use
Use Pompeian Simply Light Taste Olive Oil for frying, sautéing, roasting, baking, and grilling. Its neutral flavor makes it ideal for mayonnaise, vinaigrettes, marinades, and sauces where other ingredients should take center stage. For pan frying, heat in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. For baking, substitute 1:1 for butter or vegetable oil in muffins, cakes, and quick breads. For roasting vegetables, toss with the oil, salt, and herbs before spreading on a sheet pan at 400–425°F. For grilling, brush on protein and vegetables before placing on the grill. For homemade mayo, drizzle slowly into egg yolks while whisking for a clean, neutral-flavored emulsion. Store in a cool, dark place — do not refrigerate. Use within 12–18 months of opening.
