California Olive Oil


Bill Daley of the Chicago Tribune has written a good, if too short, piece about California olive oil (free registration or bugmenot usage required). He covers the marketing cachet that makes it so popular, the economics of it, a few obvious recipes, and spares little more than a sentence for an explanation of the different grades, a topic that’s been done to death.

There’s also an article on this topic by Corby Kummer in the Atlantic Monthly’s Jan/Feb ‘06 issue. He covers the new wave of Tuscan-style California olive oils.

Cindy,

Thanks for the tip! I’ll keep an eye out.
