Autumn recipe: Honey-baked feta toast, with pear, chard & sage

Sizzled pears and honey baked feta give this snack the caramel vibes we associate with autumn. The sweetness is balanced by salty cheese, fragrant sage and bitter, tangy greens. All snug on a bed of toasty sourdough and sparkling with extra virgin olive oil.

Hearty lentil and rice salad with herbs—made by our farmer

Lentils, rice, fresh herbs and a ‘soupy’ lemon + EVOO dressing make this a salad for the season.💯 Do as the Greeks do and make salads that don't even have any lettuce in them at all. Focus on seasonal ingredients that pack a heavier autumnal punch, but still covered in fresh herbs, tangy acidity and the ever-present extra virgin olive oil. This is a staple meal that our farmer, Dimitris, makes often for lunch or when in need of something quick & easy, but filling and nutritious. Here a...

Ice cream with olive oil - extra virgin single estate from Citizens of Soil

Proud in its pairing. Intriguing in its coveted place on ...

Jerusalem Artichoke with Pickled Onions and Hazelnuts

Aurore is back at it again with another healthy and delicious recipe to get us through the grim winter months. Ideally, make this around the time you make her burrata and roasted beetroots to use up the leftover hazelnuts. Either way, this raw Jerusalem artichoke with zesty citrus is just what we need to feel nourished and happy as we work our way into longer days...

Prepare to be blown away by this flavour pairing. Sweet, fragrant mango with rich, grassy extra virgin olive oil—a dessert you won't stop thinking about.

5 reasons to start your day with a spoonful of EVOO

The start of the New Year is for many of us the time to reflect, set our resolutions, and create new habits. Some will meditate, some will start learning a new skill and others… will start taking a spoonful of olive oil in the morning! This oil “trend” started to emerge quite recently with celebs swearing by it.
