Extra Virgin Olive Oil Filema Premium 500 ml – Cold Pressed | Crete
In a Greek home, olive oil is as naturally on the table as bread and tomatoes. It's there to combine flavors, emphasize simplicity, and add that "something" that turns an ordinary meal into a shared dinner. Filema Premium in the 500 ml version is an olive oil you can always have on hand – for everyday cooking and for moments when you want to serve something a little more festive.
This is extra virgin olive oil from the brand Filema, described by the producer as cold-pressed/cold-extracted. This method of extraction is important for flavor and aroma: the olive oil retains a fresher character and works better as a "finishing" ingredient – for drizzling over a finished dish, for dressings, or for dipping bread.
The 0.5 l version is the most "kitchen-friendly": it lasts longer, yet is still convenient. The bottle looks elegant, so if you're putting together a gourmet set or going to dinner at a friend's house, this product speaks for itself – simple, authentic, and gift-worthy.
Culinary Applications
- classically for salads (horiatiki, arugula with tomatoes and feta),
- for dipping bread (with oregano and a pinch of salt),
- for oven-baked vegetables (zucchini, eggplant, bell peppers),
- for finishing soups and creams (e.g., tomato, roasted bell pepper),
- for grilled fish and seafood (on the finished dish),
- for marinades (lemon, garlic, oregano).
Pair with
Simply: fresh bread, tomatoes, feta, olives, oregano. For a mezze-style dinner, add olive paste and something crunchy – and the table is ready.
