This condiment is a combination of Arbequina olive oil and natural black garlic, which adds a mild, highly aromatic flavour. Black garlic, originally from Japan but produced here, is milder than the usual white garlic. Thanks to its natural fermentation, it loses its strong odour and develops a delicious taste, also known as umami.
It has the same antioxidant, antibiotic and anti-inflammatory properties as white garlic. Black garlic is widely used in professional cooking and can be combined with Valderrama Arbequina oil to create a stable, aromatic and extremely healthy product. This combination helps to reduce cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar levels, while also having an energising effect. Black garlic olive oil has a pronounced garlic and liquorice flavour, making it an ideal choice for flavouring chocolate or cocoa emulsions.
It can also be used in ganaches and sweet cocoa-based sauces. In addition, it blends perfectly with more neutral oils in the preparation of vegetable confits with a markedly bitter flavour, such as asparagus, chicory or turnip tops.
Valderrama is a producer of extra virgin olive oil based in Toledo that uses traditional methods and whose quality has been widely recognized by many professionals in the sector. It has specialized in the manufacture of top quality oil, which is very suitable for haute cuisine dishes.
