What we thought: This was a really great olive oil for everyday use.  It had a pleasant flavor that worked well for a variety of cooking methods.  We used it in our pump sprayer that converts oil into spray and it was great for prepping pans for cooking and baking and worked really well sprayed on fresh veggies for roasting.  It was great for using in baked goods and on grilled meats.  It was so versatile and our two favorite ways to eat it were mixed with a little basil pesto as a dipping sauce and as a base for delicious salad dressings. Overall, a really great olive oil for daily use...a great healthy alternative to butter or other oils:)  ABCD Diaries gives California Oil Ranch an A+!
