Exquisite Olive Oils Online

(June, 2005) Alejandro & Martin - http://www.alejandroandmartin.com is the new place on the Internet to order exquisite imported and domestic olive oils delivered to your home or office and for corporate and personal gifts. Born of the founders’ love of travel and fine foods, Alejandro & Martin makes select olive oils available to those with discerning taste - with the click of a mouse.

Alejandro & Martin imports the work of artisans - family farmers and small cooperatives around the world who dedicate themselves to the art of making olive oil. They are committed to discovering limited runs of handcrafted olive oils that offer extraordinary flavor and rarity - olive oils that express themselves eloquently through their intensity, their delicacy and their individuality.

Alejandro & Martin’s olive oil flavor profiles include:
Mild & Delicate olive oil pairs well with mild and delicate foods that don't overwhelm the oil's subtle nuances. It is delicious on our Chicken, Sausage and Shrimp Paella - for the recipe, click on http://www.alejandroandmartin.com/recipe_paella.html or drizzle it on a bowl of fresh chilled summer gazpacho. Try it on seared tuna seasoned with salt and pepper, or over mashed potatoes with fontina and chopped chives.

Fragrant & Fruity olive oil pairs well with foods that have a sweet or fruity nature. Try it in Marsala Wine Baby Cakes - for the recipe, click on http://www.alejandroandmartin.com/recipe_marsala_wine_baby_cakes.html or mix it with basil to make pesto. Drizzle it over a segment of tangerine layered on fresh mozzarella and finished with a single sprig of rosemary, or pour a thread over a grilled peach sprinkled with coarse salt.

Olivey & Peppery olive oil pairs well with foods that are similarly intense, such as aromatic herbs, capers, salami and crusty breads. Try it on our Roasted Beets with Fresh Thyme - for the recipe, click on http://www.alejandroandmartin.com/recipe_roasted_beets.html or use it to finish a fresh-baked pizza topped with mushrooms and caramelized onions.

Green & Grassy olive oil pairs well with foods of strong character, particularly those with bitter or peppery aspects. When eaten with these types of food, the bitterness subsides in both, revealing a range of hidden flavors. Try it on Pepper-Crusted Seared Sea Scallops with Green & Grassy Vodka Vinaigrette - for the recipe, click on http://www.alejandroandmartin.com/recipe_pepper_crusted_seared_scallops.html or on a salad of fresh arugula or other bitter greens, on smoky grilled meats and oven-roasted vegetables.

Each olive oil offered is defined by virtue of:
• olive varieties (each region grows its own)
• whether the olives are harvested early or late in their ripening cycle
• the qualities of the soil they are grown in
• weather conditions
• altitude
• cultivation and pest control practices

All of Alejandro & Martin’s olive oils are available in 100ml and 500ml glass bottles, 4 pack gift boxes, or join the Olive Oil of the Month Club and receive a different 500ml bottle each month (makes the perfect gift for your food lover friends and colleagues!).
