Olio Santo Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a highly rated California olive oil. I love it on salads and use it for pizza--as an ingredient in the crust and as the "sauce" (add minced garlic to a couple of tablespoons of Olio Santo, let sit for an hour or two, and brush over the crust before adding other toppings). Also great with pasta in place of a marinara or other sauce. It is a flavorful olive oil, so you might want to choose a less-flavorful oil for sauteeing when using another main sauce. Great for dipping or any time you want great olive oil flavor! Stonehouse makes a standard EVOO that is also very good, but Olio Santo is their star. Makes a great gift when paired with Stonehouse Balsamic Vinegar or White Balsamic Vinegar.

THIS OLIVE OIL IS BY FAR THE BEST I HAVE EVER USED. IT PUTS SOME OF THE ITALIAN AND SPANISH OLIVE OILS TO SHAME. IT TOOK ME A WHILE TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE LABEL ON THE BAREFOOT CONTESSA SHOW, AND ALAS, SHE TURNED THE BOTTLE AROUND AND GOTCHA!

REAL REAL GOOD EVOO

I bought this olive oil because of the Barefoot Contessa show just to see what it was all about. When I got it and used it, OH MY GOD! It truly is the best I have ever used!!! Great, great flavor... It's getting hard to find though, whats up with that?

After having tried more brands of olive oil than I can remember, I finally found Olio Santo and am sticking with it. It is a versatile oil in that it is light enough for salad dressings and strong enough for cooking without being overpowering. I was also glad to have found it on Amazon since it is less expensive than purchasing it from the California based company that makes it.

It's great but go to william sonoma. It's almost 10 dollars cheaper. I love to shop at amazon, but sometimes, their prices are stupid.

I almost wonder if my oil is spoiled? Was expecting a buttery warm taste with some bite..and it's off. I know the quality of what Ina prefers from her books and show and this doesn't seem up to par...
