hi,
i bought basso extra virgin olive oil in tesco n it tastes like .. petrol
can u suggest any extra virgin olive oil which taste not bad.. how about bertolli n colavita? how does it taste like? i jz want to reduce colesterol, the taste is not my important priority..
tq

To be frank, changing palm oil to olive oil does not reduce your cholesterol intake if you cook with the same amount of whichever oil. Reducing cholesterol works if you choose your food properly on the whole on not only changing which type of oil. As long as it is vege based like sunflower seed oil, corn oil, olive oil or even palm oil, they are the same as long as you don't use animal fat oil. Take more white meat, reduce your 'pun fei sau' pork and eat only lean meat and eats lots of fruits and vegetables. You can find more tips from the net.

Changing to olive oil is negligible, why buy expensive oil and does not suit your taste but having the same characteristics as palm oil.

I am taking a teaspoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil every morning and night coz I heard that it is essential to keep one's youth and beauty

i m looking for oil very high v monounsaturated fat n can be eaten directly yo..

thanks for both of ur replies..

mind telling me wat brand is it? how does it taste like? fruity? bitter?
as of preserving young looking.. i think it is more attributed to its polyphenol's antioxidant property.. which i think u shld opt for d supplement type or choose d more bitter olive oil.. jz my 2 cents.. since i m targeting different benefit..

What do u use for the extra virgin olive oil? Cooking? Dipping bread? On salad?

Last few years i did use Basso. But i wanted to try different brands. Then, Colavita. And now, Monte Verde. Normally i use extra virgin olive oil for my salad dressing and my pasta cooking. I don't think that EVOO would taste the same for the chinese cooking. By the way, i use Grapeseed Oil for my chinese cooking because of health benefits.

to ur surprise.. hehe .. campur in rice .. bcos i m lacking of dietary fat.. ==
how does colavita n monte verde taste like? pungent?
did u try spanish EVOO? they said it is fruity in taste..
grapeseed oil.. wat brand? i saw a grapeseed oil of brand Radiant in tesco today.. u r looking for wat benefit? antioxidant? most of the polyphenol is not available in oil form sis..

Pungent? Maybe that's how EVOO smells to your nose?

Spanish EVOO, not yet. Maybe some day. Grapeseed oil from Justlife and Country Farm Organics. My parents bought in a special discount price because they're regular customers for years. If EVOO not suit your tastebud, u should choose, maybe Canola or Sunflower Oil?

It also depends how u use them for your food.

Afternoon.

I just buy those Ginvera ones, small bottle.
At Guardian pharmacy.

For my Oil Cleansing Method.

ya.. strong smell.. petrol not pungent meh?
if Spanish evoo, I would like to try d Zoe brand.. acc to some website, it’s one of d most fruitiest one.. but hardly find in m’sia lah.. Justlife price is killing yo..
regading country organic farm product, I 1 2 buy d liquid form fish oil but there is no CFO branch in seremban..
special discount price ar.. :thumbs up: hey, ur parents 1 2 adopt a son o not? why me? erm… as a return I teach them how to eat kacang putih.. ya.. the tossing way.. hehe
canola, arguably, harmful.. so ayam no gut to try.. not sure though..
sunflower oil.. unrefined one is not easy to buy … s’ban is very hulu one..
I m taking extra virgin coconut oil.. fr cosway.. highly recommend u to try it, esp. if u love nasi lemak n kaya…. not costly, around rm25 for 500ml..
how I use it? jz “pour” in dish yo.. averagely.. I having 4 tablespoon of nutritional oil daily yo.. it’s 540 kcalories..

hello .. omg.. tae yeon wrote to me..

I like bertolli, it doesn't taste strong and it is quite a famous brand.

I used to do that as well, until I read that it is not healthy to do so.
EVOO only reduces cholesterol as a SUBSTITUTE for more harmful oil.

I maybe wrong, but please do more research before continuing.

I think what happened was your Olive Oil wasn't stored properly
Especially Malaysia weather so hot and humid,
If not stored in cool & dark places it will taste real weird/rancid.

Colavita lover here

extra virgin oil use for salad not for deep fry. palm oil is for deep fry. other oil such as sunflower oil can be use for deep fry.

virgin oil not suitable for deep fry. u cant do salad using palm oil.

olive oil is good.

the level of ignorance is astounding....

mind to share any recipe with EVOO?

There are a few variety of olive used in olive oil extraction, each with distinguish flavours. Most olive oils sold are blended of a few variety of olive oil. As extra virgin olive oil is unrefined except cold pressed, flavour is natural compared with processed palm oil which flavour is neutral. Hence, extra virgin olive oil from the same manufacturer could be different in colour and flavour. Single variety and low acidity is only available from speciality shops. Like single malt whisky, some people like and some don’t.

Any cooking oil can be used in frying up to smoke point e.g. extra virgin olive oil about 200C, palm oil 235C. Most deep frying temperature is below 180C, so extra virgin oil is suitable but a lot more expensive than palm oil.

French use a lot of butter for cooking and their life expectancy is longer than Malaysians.

try buy at aswar - desa pandan (blkng mekdi desa pandan)
there hv 1 arabic minimarket
the taste olive oil veri sedap ... & cheap samor

Guys,
I also want to say something about it, I think what occurred was your Olive Oil wasn't saved effectively
Especially Malaysia climate so hot and moist,
If not saved in awesome & black locations it will flavor actual weird rancid...

If you can't take EVOO, go for normal olive oil. Taste milder but still has the olive fragrance.

You won't be able to use EVOO to cook anyway.

Also keep in mind that all plant products, including peanuts, coconut, durian and avocadoes do not contain cholesterol.

I recommend taking olive oil since it contains essential organic oil which is healthy and also it is unsaturated.

I always use Basso cos it's the most affordable of all EVOO brands.

To me, olive oil is an acquired taste. The liking for it develops over time. When I first started out, I found the taste weird, but have since developed a strong liking for olive oil. I use it for all Western cooking (pasta, roast potatoes, etc) and for dips with bread. For usual cooking I normally use sunflower seed oil or other healthy oils.

as a TS, i m surprise to c this topic grows.. n kinda happy too ..
in fact ,i myself took one spoon of olive oil only.. ever..

Look for 'cold pressed via mechanical means, 1st extract', its the best.
I hv used colavita regularly, recently buy basso, find no difference.
Good evoo gives a bit of kick in the throat.

lots of fakes in the market

How about coconut oil, does it taste good ? The price tag is pretty high. What do you do with this oil? I do t think im going to use for cooking but making breads .

as mentioned by others, cosway is ok & cheap
other brands sell this oil costlier than olive oil frm europe !

thanks.

Guys, does anyone here know anything about peanut oil? Bought a bottle at Tesco recently. It was the only the bottle of its kind on the shelves...haha. I find it tastes nice with basic sauteed dishes, as well as when mixed raw with ginger and garlic and used as a dipping sauce for white steamed/boiled chicken.
