Peaches & cream with olive oil

Peaches & cream with olive oil

Lightly whipped double cream makes a pillowy base for sweet sliced peaches, balanced and elevated by cracked black pepper, oregano, and a good drizzle of EVOO.

Created to perfectly compliment the fruity nature of the Olive Oil Club’s August drop, this recipe is simple, sweet, and succulent.

Try a savoury version of this by switching the cream for stracciatella, or—for a breakfast that’s peach perfect—swap the cream for yoghurt.

Here's the method:

Whip the cream with the sugar and the zest of the lemon to soft peaks.
Segment the peaches.
Combine the juice of half a lemon with 50ml of EVOO.
To arrange, dollop the cream onto the plate and pile 4 or 5 slices of peach on top. Dress with the EVOO and lemon, then sprinkle with oregano.

An EVOO brand boom—but what about olive oil quality?

The vibe is cool, and it has all the seemingly right buzzwords, but then you scratch your head and wonder: is it actually high-quality olive oil? Or just a nice packaging? How’s one to know? You’re probably familiar with this experience: you followed an olive oil business (like, let’s say, Citizens of Soil) and now every time you go on Instagram, you’re getting served up an ad for a new, easy-on-the-eyes olive oil brand. So today, we want to address the elephant in the olive oil-filled room...
