How to use Copper Hill’s Meyer Lemon Olive Oil

The folks at Copper Hill created their unique, award winning citrus olive oil blend by combining the bright flavor of California Meyer Lemons with buttery Arbequina olives.  The two fruits are crushed together for a perfect harmony of flavors that are useful any time the rich taste of olive oil and the sweet tang of lemon would compliment a recipe.

Veggies: A natural match, whether drizzled on after steaming, brushed on after roasting or grilling, or drizzled on at the last minute of a saute. Consider greens, asparagus, eggplant, sweet bell peppers, and squash with that hint of fresh lemon.

Seafood: Another great match, whether a rich or mild fish, shrimp, crab or scallops. Olive oil serves as the basting base for lemon which is a natural paring with seafood.

Poultry: Chicken and lemon go well together, use the Meyer Lemon Olive Oil as a base for a marinade. Simply brush it on with salt and pepper before baking or as a glaze after baking.

Salad: Many dressings benefit from a bit of lemon juice, so next time you make your vinaigrette, use our lemon oil blend and the flavor is already there.

Pasta: Instead of regular olive oil, for a change use Copper Hill’s Meyer Lemon Olive Oil blend to drizzle your pasta. Add sausage, onions, veggies, and grated cheese to make a delicious meal.

Bread: Copper Hill’s Meyer Lemon Olive Oil is a fresh change from regular dipping olive oil. With a hint of cracked pepper and a bit of garlic or herbs, your fresh artisan bread will sing with flavor.
