Cooking with olive oil is simple once you understand quality and purpose. High quality extra virgin olive oil is meant for everyday cooking, including sauteing, roasting, pan cooking, and baking, not just finishing dishes. The key is choosing the right oil for the job, using moderate heat, and starting with fresh, well-stored oil that tastes clean and vibrant.

At The Anointed Olive in DeLand and Ormond Beach, customers can taste oils, ask questions, and get guidance tailored to how they cook at home. For those outside the area, the shop ships olive oils, balsamic vinegars, and gourmet gift sets nationwide in the U.S., including APO addresses, making it easy to cook with confidence wherever you live.
