This method allows a wide range of flavour sources to be used without compromising the oil's purity, since the olive pressing itself stays untouched.

The botanical ingredients used in Butter 'Taste' Olive Oil are organic, and the finished oil contains no artificial flavours, no dairy, and no added colours. Nelson Olive Oil Co. tests products for purity, so the oil you receive matches what the label describes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003csection class=\"expandable-content\" id=\"use-cases\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eDishes and Techniques That Suit Butter Taste Olive Oil\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eButter 'Taste' Olive Oil works as a direct liquid substitute wherever a recipe calls for melted butter or a neutral cooking fat. The butter flavour holds up well when drizzled over hot food at the table, making the oil especially effective as a finishing touch on steamed vegetables, baked potatoes, and corn on the cob.

During cooking, the oil suits gentle sauteing of vegetables, shrimp, or crab, where the butter character softens aromatics without overpowering them. As a finisher, a small drizzle over pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes delivers the richest butter impression, since heat has not driven off the botanical flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch4\u003eSpecific Applications by Meal Type\u003c\/h4\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePopcorn — drizzle Butter 'Taste' Olive Oil directly over hot popcorn in the same quantity you would use melted butter, roughly one to two tablespoons per four-cup serving.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eBread dipping — serve Butter 'Taste' Olive Oil in a shallow dish alongside crusty bread as a dairy-free alternative to butter at the table.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eBaking — replace melted butter with Butter 'Taste' Olive Oil in a one-to-one ratio for muffins, quick breads, and pan-greasing tasks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePasta and grains — toss cooked pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes with Butter 'Taste' Olive Oil off the heat so the flavour stays bright and the oil coats evenly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003csection class=\"expandable-content\" id=\"pairing-rationale\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Butter Taste Olive Oil Pairs With Specific Balsamics\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eButter 'Taste' Olive Oil has a creamy, neutral-sweet base that makes the oil unusually accommodating as a pairing partner, because the butter character bridges savory and sweet without competing. Pairing this oil with a Sicilian lemon balsamic creates contrast, where bright citrus acidity cuts through the richness and lifts the flavour in the same way lemon butter works in classic cooking. For a full overview of how oils and balsamics complement each other, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nelsonoliveoil.ca\/pages\/pairing-suggestions\"\u003eexplore oil and balsamic pairing ideas\u003c\/a\u003e across the Nelson Olive Oil Co. range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eBuilding Compound Flavour Pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eCombining Butter 'Taste' Olive Oil with a Maple Balsamic produces a maple butter profile that works over pancakes, waffles, roasted squash, and glazed carrots, where the sweetness of both components reinforces each other. Mixing Butter 'Taste' Olive Oil with garlic olive oil creates a garlic butter that suits pasta, bread, and sauteed seafood, layering two infused oils to build a familiar compound flavour without any dairy. The page also recommends Black Truffle Sea Salt over popcorn with this oil, where the salt's earthiness anchors the butter flavour and adds complexity that plain salted butter typically lacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003csection class=\"expandable-content\" id=\"heat-guidance\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eHeat Guidelines for Cooking With Butter Taste Olive Oil\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eButter 'Taste' Olive Oil performs best at low to medium heat, which suits the sauteing and gentle baking applications listed on the product page. At higher temperatures, the botanical flavour that creates the butter character begins to fade, so the oil delivers the strongest butter impression when used at moderate heat or added after the heat source is removed. For cooking tasks that require sustained high heat, a plain extra virgin olive oil from the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nelsonoliveoil.ca\/collections\/up-extra-virgin-olive-oils\"\u003eultra-premium extra virgin olive oil collection\u003c\/a\u003e handles heat more neutrally while the Butter 'Taste' oil finishes the dish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhen to Add Butter Taste Olive Oil During Cooking\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eAdding Butter 'Taste' Olive Oil at the end of cooking, rather than at the start, gives the clearest butter flavour because the botanical compounds stay intact. For sauteing vegetables or seafood, starting with a small amount of the oil over medium heat and finishing with a second drizzle off the heat produces both cooking performance and a distinct butter finish. In baking, mixing Butter 'Taste' Olive Oil into a batter before the oven rather than brushing it on after yields a more integrated flavour throughout the finished item.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n","brand":"Nelson Olive Oil Co","offers":[{"title":"200ml","offer_id":30120125235254,"sku":"FL-BUTTER-200","price":17.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"375ml","offer_id":30120125268022,"sku":"FL-BUTTER-375","price":25.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"750ml","offer_id":30120125300790,"sku":"FL-BUTTER-750","price":42.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0177\/0088\/0438\/files\/butterflavouroliveoil.png?v=1690324941"},{"product_id":"japanese-toasted-sesame-oil","title":"Japanese Toasted Sesame Oil","description":"\u003cp class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003eOur Japanese dark toasted sesame oil is made from high quality sesame seeds roasted slowly under low temperature, and then pressed in small batches in Japan in the traditional style.

Small-batch crafting lets producers monitor flavour balance closely, adjusting the ratio of roasted garlic to sweetness with precision that large-scale production cannot match. The result is a condiment with a clearly defined character rather than a blended-into-anonymity flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eRoasting garlic before incorporating it into the syrup transforms the raw, sharp bite of raw garlic into a mellower, deeper flavour with caramelized notes. This roasting step is what separates Kokotelli Garlic Syrup from raw garlic-forward sauces, giving the syrup a richness that pairs with both savoury proteins and sweeter preparations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n \n\u003csection class=\"expandable-content\" id=\"use-cases\"\u003e\n \u003ch2\u003eHow to Use Kokotelli Garlic Syrup Across Meals\u003c\/h2\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eKokotelli Garlic Syrup performs differently depending on when you add it to a dish. Applied before or during cooking, the syrup reduces and concentrates, creating a sticky, caramelized crust on roasted vegetables or grilled chicken. Added at the end as a finisher, Kokotelli Garlic Syrup retains its full sweet-savoury balance and gives a glossy, restaurant-quality finish to proteins and sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \n \u003ch3\u003eFinishing and Glazing Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eAs a finishing glaze on salmon, Kokotelli Garlic Syrup brings sweetness to balance the fish's natural richness without overpowering it. Brush Kokotelli Garlic Syrup onto salmon or tofu in the final two to three minutes of cooking so the glaze sets without burning. The same approach works on pork tenderloin, chicken thighs, and roasted carrots, where the garlic note anchors the sweetness to the savoury base of the protein or vegetable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \n \u003ch3\u003eMarinades and Charcuterie Boards\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eIn a marinade, Kokotelli Garlic Syrup acts as both a flavour agent and a tenderizer, coating proteins before grilling or roasting. Combine Kokotelli Garlic Syrup with an acid such as a balsamic or citrus juice to build a balanced marinade that penetrates meat rather than sitting on the surface. On a charcuterie board, Kokotelli Garlic Syrup works as a dipping condiment alongside aged cheeses, cured meats, and crackers, where its sweetness offsets the saltiness of the other components.

A small amount stirred into a savoury cocktail base replaces plain sugar syrup while contributing roasted garlic complexity. Kokotelli Garlic Syrup also works well drizzled over flatbreads and pizza just before serving, where the heat of the bread warms the syrup without cooking out its character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n \n\u003csection class=\"expandable-content\" id=\"heat-cooking-guidance\"\u003e\n \u003ch2\u003eCooking with Kokotelli Garlic Syrup at Different Heat Levels\u003c\/h2\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eKokotelli Garlic Syrup suits both high-heat and no-heat applications, but each approach produces a different result. At high heat, the sugars in Kokotelli Garlic Syrup caramelize and the syrup thickens quickly, forming a sticky glaze that adheres to proteins and vegetables. Applying the syrup too early in high-heat cooking risks burning the sugar content before the food finishes cooking, so timing the addition matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eAt lower heat, such as a gentle oven roast or a slow braise, Kokotelli Garlic Syrup melts into sauces and pan juices gradually, distributing its flavour through the dish rather than forming a crust. For cold applications like charcuterie boards or drizzling over finished dishes at the table, Kokotelli Garlic Syrup delivers its full sweet-roasted garlic flavour without any alteration from heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n \n\u003csection class=\"expandable-content\" id=\"storage-freshness\"\u003e\n \u003ch2\u003eStoring Kokotelli Garlic Syrup to Preserve Flavour\u003c\/h2\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eStore Kokotelli Garlic Syrup in a cool, dark location away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Heat and light accelerate flavour degradation in syrups, causing the roasted garlic notes to dull and the sweetness to flatten over time. A sealed cupboard or pantry shelf away from the stove is a reliable storage spot for an unopened bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eOnce opened, keep the bottle tightly sealed between uses to limit oxygen exposure. Refrigerating Kokotelli Garlic Syrup after opening is an option that extends its peak flavour, though the syrup may thicken when cold and will return to its pourable consistency at room temperature within a few minutes. If the syrup develops an off smell or the garlic character disappears entirely, that indicates the product has passed its best quality window.
