Olive oil is a cornerstone of healthy cooking, prized for its flavor and health benefits. But did you know that not all olive oil is created equal? Unfortunately, adulteration – the mixing of cheaper oils with genuine olive oil – is a real concern. This not only affects the taste but also diminishes the health properties you expect from this liquid gold.

Become an Olive Oil Expert: Easy At-Home Tests

Don’t worry, you don’t need a lab to identify high-quality olive oil! Here are two simple methods you can try at home:

• The Refrigerator Test: Extra virgin olive oil, unlike some imitators, has a natural tendency to solidify at cooler temperatures. Place a spoonful of your olive oil in the refrigerator for a few hours. If it becomes cloudy and starts to solidify, that’s a good sign you have the real deal!
• The Water Test: This test relies on the unique properties of olive oil. Fill a clear glass with some olive oil and add a similar amount of water. Shake the mixture vigorously for a few seconds. Genuine olive oil will create a thick, white emulsion that persists for a while. Lower-quality oils will separate quickly, leaving distinct layers.
