1 tbsp. chopped garlic

1 tbsp. chopped shallots
1/4 Traditional Balsamic
2 tbsp. dijon mustard
1 tsp. lemon juice
2 salt packed anchovy fillets (deboned, soaked in milk 30 minutes, drain, dry)
1 lg. egg or 2 tbsp. Egg Beaters
2 cups of any single-varietal olive oil
Fresh white pepper to taste
Blend first 7 ingredients in a blender until smooth. Add olive oil in a stream, a little at a time until well mixed and smooth. Put over a salad with crisp Romaine lettuce, garlic croutons and shaved parmesan cheese. You can top with anchovy fillets if desired. Sprinkle with fresh ground pepper and enjoy!

Persian Lime + Honey Ginger Vinaigrette

1/3 c The Spicy Olive’s Persian Lime Olive Oil

1/3 c The Spicy Olive’s Honey Ginger Balsamic Vinegar
Whisk the above ingredients together and enjoy on salads or as a marinade for fish and chicken. Absolutely delicious!

Raspberry Vinaigrette

1/2 cup The Spicy Olive extra virgin olive oil 

1/4 cup The Spicy Olive Raspberry balsamic vinegar
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
We recommend our Basil Olive Oil for this dressing. Whisk the ingredients together and serve over any salad. It’s also great drizzled over cooked vegetables like broccoli and asparagus.

The Spicy Olive Balsamic Vinaigrette

1/2 cup The Spicy Olive’s Traditional Aged 18 year Balsamic Vinegar

3 tbsp. dijon mustard
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 cup The Spicy Olive’s ultra premium olive oil, such as Arbequina or Cerasuola
Whisk together the first 5 ingredients. Whisk in the olive oil in a constant stream until well-blended. Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Basil Lime Salad Dressing

2 tbs. The Spicy Olive’s Basil Olive Oil

1.5 tbs. The Spicy Olive’s Persian Lime Olive Oil
2 tbs. The Spicy Olive’s White Balsamic Vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste
Drizzle over any green salad. It’s also delicious over a fruit or tomato salad.

The Spicy Olive BBQ Marinade

1 cup of The Spicy Olive’s Cinnamon Pear Balsamic Vinegar

1 cup of The Spicy Olive’s Dark Chocolate or Espresso Balsamic Vinegar
1 cup chili sauce
1 tsp. chili powder
1 clove of garlic minced
1 tbsp. liquid smoke
2 bottles of beer (not light beer)
Mix together and use to marinade pork rib or beef rib slabs or a whole chicken – best to allow to marinade overnight for full flavor. Cook ribs in 250 degrees oven for 4+ hours to get really tender and then finish on the grill for the smoky taste. For the chicken, you can grill over a beer can until internal temperature reaches 170 degrees.

Asian Marinade

1 cup soy sauce

1/2 cup The Spicy Olive’s Organic Persian Lime Olive Oil
1/3 cup The Spicy Olive’s Honey Ginger White Balsamic Vinegar
2 tbsp. The Spicy Olive’s Roasted Sesame Oil
1 garlic clove, minced
Mix all ingredients. Marinade chicken, steaks or pork overnight and then grill or broil until proper internal temperature is reached. Allow meat to rest before slicing. Finish with a drizzle of roasted sesame oil.

Classic Vinaigrette

Our Tuscan Herb Olive Oil and Traditional Balsamic works perfectly for a classic vinaigrette – simple and delicious!

1/3 cup vinegar

1 small shallot, chunked
1 tsp. whole grain mustard
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper
2/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
Combine all ingredients except olive oil in a blender and blend well. Remove blender cap. On medium speed, add olive oil in steady stream until emulsified.
