Flavored Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar – Delicious
I found another wonderful, local, family owned shop that has again awakened my taste buds, Mia Sorella.
Two sisters, Debbie and Kristi have an olive oil and balsamic vinegar shop with a tasting room…yes, tasting olive oils and vinegars!
That should be a pretty quick tasting, right?
Think again!
This isn’t just straight olive oil or vinegar you find in the grocery store, this is natural, gourmet and flavored!
Lemon Olive Oil (WOW!)
Lime Olive Oil (WOW, Again!)
Tuscan Olive Oil (Wonderful garlic, herb flavor)
Red Cayenne Olive Oil (The sample Brownies made with this had a good kick!)
Cinnamon Pear Balsamic (Perfect Spice Flavor!)
Red Apple Balsamic (Great for Pork Marinade!)
Peach Balsamic (This one could be an after dinner drink – very light!)
Dark Chocolate Balsamic (OMG!)
Espresso Balsamic (Splendidamente delizioso!)
There is no way I can go back to store bought bottled salad dressing, let alone plain olive oil or balsamic now that I’ve tasted these amazing concoctions! The Tuscan Oil and Peach Balsamic is now my favorite salad dressing, and pasta toss. The hubby was very skeptical at first, but when I served the pork marinated in the Lemon Oil and Red Apple Balsamic, he now asks me, “What flavor combination is next?!”
I’m telling you, just try one oil and one vinegar, and you’re cooking will instantly improve without any other techniques applied. The family will try to guess what is different, but keep it our little secret, so they don’t know you are using natural products that are good for them!
The sisters have wonderful recipes they are happy to give you to try these oils and vinegars in ways you never expected (really, the brownies available as free samples in the store were actually made with the Chipotle Olive Oil, and they were scrumptious! Thanks for the clarification, Mia Sorella!)
No, I’m not being paid for this post, and Yes, I mean every word!
Have you tried any unique, gourmet oil and vinegar combinations you would like to brag about?!
Please share?!
Mary,
Thank you so much for the lovely review! We are so glad your are enjoying our products.
It’s amazing how much flavor and goodness a fresh olive oil and aged balsamic from Italy
can add to our food. Not to mention all the health benefits we get from fresh extra virgin
olive oil.
The best thing about owning this store is seeing how excited our customers get when
they taste for the first time and watching them start to experiment with mixtures on their
own. We love talking with and getting to know our customers and welcome questions.
So glad you enjoyed the brownies our mom makes every weekend for us. Just wanted to
mention that they were made with the Chipotle olive oil. The Cayenne might be a little too hot!
But if you do try it with the Cayenne, let us know how you liked it.
Thanks again, from the whole family at Mia Sorella
You are so welcome, Kristi!
Thank you for such a wonderful addition to my kitchen! See you soon!
