Toasted Genzano bread and extra virgin olive oil

Toasted Genzano bread and extra virgin olive oil

The best way of tasting extra virgin olive oil Sabina is poured over a slice of toasted bread or "bruschetta". However, every recipe can be used to exalt its flavour. The olive oil is characterised by a green-yellow colour with golden hues, a distinctive bouquet of artichoke, cut grass and sometimes peppermint and rosemary, and a taste of fresh olives, artichokes and thistles. The olive oil must have a level of acidity less than 0.6 and a peroxide value less than 14 Meq O2/kg.
