In this issueExtra-Virgin and Oh, So DeliciousWhy do we love olive oil? Let us count the ways. From its incredible versatility to its richness in antioxidants, we think this might just be a miracle food. For a locally made treat, try the olive oil being produced by Bariani right here in Sacramento. Service with StyleFor a cute addition to your serving collection, pick up a set of Clay Art’s hand-painted, olive-patterned oil bottles, plates and dishware. We think these would be adorable for your next Italian feast. If olives aren’t quite your style, check out Clay Art’s many other hand-painted patterns. Clean Up with Olive OilOf course we love the fruity taste of a delicious olive oil, but we were also delighted to discover that this versatile oil is a great moisturizer, too!

These squashes promote heart health with a trio of nutrients: potassium, vitamin C and fiber — and only 36 calories per cup. Studies show that people who eat several servings of vegetables daily, including zucchini and other summer squashes, effectively lower their blood pressure and circulating cholesterol levels. Phytonutrients in zucchini and crookneck may also help prevent cancer. Since skin and all make it to your mouth, select shiny and unblemished squashes with tender skins. Use them sliced in stir-fries; added to soups, stews and casseroles; or grate over salads. You can even “sneak” a serving of vegetables using grated squash in muffins and quick bread recipes. Grilled squash makes an excellent addition to summertime meals. Slice them lengthwise and drizzle lightly with olive oil and seasonings, then place them on a hot grill and cook a few minutes each side. |
