Bertolli Extra Virgin Olive Oil Spray
What it is
This is a convenient spray bottle filled with extra virgin olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the highest grade of olive oil, produced from the first pressing of olives. It is known for its distinct flavor and aroma, often described as fruity and slightly peppery. The spray format allows for a light, even coating of oil, making it easy to control the amount used. This product is suitable for various cooking applications where the flavor of olive oil is desired.
How people cook with it
This olive oil spray is a versatile kitchen staple. It can be used for a wide range of cooking and baking tasks.
- Coating pans for sautéing
- Misting vegetables before roasting
- Lightly dressing salads
- Greasing baking sheets
To use, simply hold the can upright and spray a fine mist directly onto your cooking surface or food. For pans, a short burst is usually enough to create a non-stick layer for sautéing or frying. When preparing vegetables for roasting, a light spray helps them brown and crisp up evenly. It can also be used to add a subtle sheen and flavor to finished dishes or to lightly coat baked goods before serving. Shake well before each use for optimal spray performance.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike traditional bottled olive oil, this spray offers a more controlled application, reducing excess oil usage. Extra virgin olive oil itself has a more robust flavor profile compared to regular or light olive oils, making it ideal for applications where its taste is meant to be noticed.

Home cooks and professional chefs alike can benefit from the ease and precision of this olive oil spray.
