Is the Monini Delicato oil made from 100% Italian olives and how hot can it be heated?
Guest
At Migros, for example, the house olive oil of the Monini brand is usually Italian. "Because the Italian harvest has suffered particularly badly this year, Monini has decided to offer a blend of different European origins for two varieties - Classico and Delicato - in order to ensure quality," says spokeswoman Martina Bosshard. Monini also had to do this in the 2014/2015 harvest year. The blend consists of Spanish, Greek and Italian olive oil. http://www.derbund.ch/wirtschaft/jetzt-kommt-das-mischoel-weil-die-oilvenernte-miserabel-war/story/22307606
Hi esperanto29, thank you for your question. At the moment there is a neckhanger on the bottles that due to bad harvests in Italy, the olives come from different European countries. You can heat the oil up to 180 degrees. Best regards, your M-Infoline team

Were the olives or oil heated above 45°C at any point in the production cycle?
Hello ZiuTyr
Thank you for your request. Monini Decanto is a cold-pressed oil that is not processed above a temperature of 28°C.

Hello, can the Monini Delicato oil also be used for frying? Thank you & best regards
Hello ZiuTyr, extra virgin olive oil such as Monini Delicato is preferably used in cold dishes, as salad oil, due to its distinctive taste and smell and its naturalness. However, it can also be used in hot dishes - for cooking, steaming or frying. However, it is more sensitive to heating than a refined oil and quickly begins to smoke, splatter and break down. The taste is also adversely affected by strong heating, it becomes bitter. A heat-stable, refined oil (HOLL rapeseed oil, peanut oil, etc.) or fat (coconut oil, frying butter, etc.) is therefore recommended for very hot or prolonged frying.
