This family estate crafts exceptional olive oils to enhance everyday cooking and offer an authentic taste experience.
But his expertise doesn't stop at classic vintages. He also produces aromatic olive oils made from olives, herbs, citrus fruits and spices, resulting in a very fresh product.
Without artificial flavorings or maceration after extraction, they are obtained by simultaneously crushing olives and fresh ingredients.
But what are the different aromatic olive oils offered by Moulin d'Éguilles?
Olive oil with basil
Among the most prized aromatic olive oils is the one with basil, and it is a great classic of Mediterranean cuisine
Its vegetal scent provides an immediate feeling of freshness reminiscent of summer harvests in the vegetable garden.
It is ideal for drizzling over a summer salad, tomato and mozzarella salad, a pizza straight from the oven, or a fresh pasta dish.
Lemon-infused olive oil
Obtained by simultaneously crushing fresh whole olives and lemons, this oil creates a perfect balance between the acidity of the citrus and the sweetness of the olive.
It is perfect for enhancing ceviches, grilled fish, tuna tartares and certain pastries or fruit salads.
A few drops are also enough to enhance a poultry marinade.
Provence thyme-infused olive oil
This oil captures the essence of the Provençal hills and offers notes characteristic of Southern cuisine.
It pairs perfectly with grilled meat or fish, oven-roasted vegetables, or fresh goat cheese.
Poured over a pan of lamb at the end of cooking, it fully releases its aromas.
Lautrec pink garlic olive oil
This oil allows you to enjoy the warm aromas of garlic while avoiding the intensity it can sometimes have when consumed raw.
You can put it on bruschetta, in a homemade vinaigrette or to season crunchy vegetables.
It's also the perfect secret ingredient to brush onto a crouton of bread before toasting it for fish soup.
Olive oil with parsley and garlic
This balanced combination is perfect for sautéing mushrooms, enhancing shellfish, or seasoning baked potatoes.
The fresh, chlorophyll-like notes of parsley balance the presence of garlic to create a harmonious whole.
It's a practical solution for making perfect seasonings in one easy step without having to chop fresh herbs.
Wild fennel olive oil
Wild fennel provides an aromatic signature reminiscent of the vegetation of the Mediterranean coast.
It is the perfect ally for marinating fish, enhancing a pan of spring vegetables or elevating a scallop carpaccio.
It also pairs wonderfully with grilled shellfish.
Ginger olive oil
The marriage between the roundness of olive oil and the spicy notes of fresh ginger creates a pleasant contrast on the palate.
This combination is perfectly suited to fusion cuisine, wok stir-fries, marinades for white meats, or to liven up a simple bowl of rice.
