What’s the one ingredient I can’t do without and why?

Olive oil. Because it’s the essence—soul, spirit, nature, heart—of life.

    Nina, I would happily give up many things but never olive oil. You are absolutely spot on! x

    Italian bread, still warm after baking in a wood-fired stone oven, dipped in olive oil–nothing could be finer!

    I remember going to a weight watchers meeting in the States and the leader suggesting a couple tablespoons of olive oil a day- the crowd couldnt figure out how in the world they could possibly use that much oil. I remember thinking they were nuts because olive oil goes well with everything! It is the essence of health. Great photo by the way.

    I love olive oil. I put some fresh twigs of rosemary in a bottle and fill it with virgin olive oil. Great for salads.
