Aging trebbiano grape musts in a
series of wooden barrels yields this exquisite
vinegar from the small town of Modena, Italy. It
has an intoxicating aroma and pungent sweetness,
and is often used simply as a flavoring,
drizzled over fresh vegetables or roasted meats.
Spain
Spain is the largest producer of olive oils in
the Mediterranean, and often has the best
bargains in price. This fruity oil was made
from ripe olive varieties in the southern
Andalusian region of Spain, and has a
powerfully sweet aroma, perfect for
quick sautéing.
Greece
Like Spanish oils, Greek olive
oils also tend to be more fruity than grassy.
This one is made from handpicked Greek koronia
olives, and has a mild aroma and strong fruity
flavor—a perfect choice for summer Greek
salads.
