Despite the many inconveniences of 2020, Christmas is still the most magical and special time of the year. Holidays, presents, unforgettable moments, and many, many delicious meals make the festive seasons a synonym of absolute happiness.
A synonym for joy that, like everything in life, can always be made better. And we’re not talking about spending less and seeing each other more. But also using the best ingredients.
From the QvExtra! blog, we would like to summarise 5 reasons why you should use SIQEV EVOO this holiday season. It is a delightful invitation that will make you enjoy the most magical days of the year with the flavour that your moments deserve.
No. 1 – It is the best EVOO for your dishes
By cooking with SIQEV Extra Virgin Olive Oil, we provide our body with a greater number of antioxidants (compared to other EVOOs on the market) and we ensure that the food we prepare this Christmas contains less “bad” fats. As if that were not enough, it also aids digestion and produces much less acidity than other oils. This is essential during the Christmas period.
But, are you wondering if you can cook with SIQEV? Although some people are of the contrary opinion, Extra Virgin Olive Oil CAN be used for frying, grilling or stewing. It does not negatively affect the flavour, not does it lose its properties at high temperatures.
Fun fact: SIQEV EVOO is the oil that best withstands heat.
No. 2 – SIQEV helps to protect our health during the colder days
This is where SIQEV EVOO takes on an even more important role during Christmas period and months of colder weather in general. As a source of vitamins A and E, which support the strengthening of the immune system, it improves our defences against infections, giving us extra protection to prevent colds or flu during the festive season.
Furthermore, by adding Extra Virgin Olive Oil to our winter diet, we can absorb the vitamins found in the delicious dishes we enjoy over Christmas. And not only those found in vegetables (which is often so strongly linked to health), but also those found in meats or oily fish such as mackerel or tuna. Thanks to the characteristics of EVOO, the fat-soluble vitamins in these foods (vitamins A, K, E and D) are absorbed to a greater extent.
No. 3 – Buying SIQEV EVOO is easy
It is so easy! Just click this link, choose your favourite company and access their online shop. In just a few days, your order will arrive at your house.
(You can also go to your favourite large supermarket and buy it there, but of course, with the cold weather it’s not as convenient as buying it from the comfort of your own home, right?).
No. 4 – It is the perfect gift
Are you looking for an original and unforgettable gift? This Christmas, forget about socks, ties and pyjamas, and choose to gift a SIQEV EVOO. Whether for its flavour, its numerous benefits on the body, or simply for the originality of gifting a bottle of the best olive oil, you are sure make a hit.
Just make sure you know the culinary tastes of the lucky person who will be taking home the SIQEV EVOO. With so many brands and such a variety of flavours, its best that you know this person and their tastes well.
P.S. If your eyes light you see the gift-wrapped bottle… keep it for yourself!
No. 5 – Your most special days deserve the best flavour
And the best flavour is exactly what is offered by SIQEV. When you enjoy an EVOO from our 33 associates, you can taste the difference. Thanks to the commendable work in the fields and a rigorous control in the oil mill (where the fruit is milled at its optimum moment of ripeness, making sure that the temperature does not exceed 24ºC to avoid the loss of volatile compounds), they obtain an excellent olive juice. An olive juice tailor-made to accompany you in your special moments.
As you can see, it is no coincidence that we offer the best flavour. SIQEV Extra Virgin Olive Oils are carefully filtered and preserved in undisturbed deposits in cellar, and the production cycle is closed by the oil being bottled into packaging that best prevents EVOO degradation. All of this so that you can enjoy the oil you deserve this Christmas.
Merry Christmas!
