1. Garlic bread with character

Slice a baguette and sprinkle generously with our Tarragona EVOO. Crush a clove of garlic and spread a little on each slice. Leave the bottle of olive oil on the table – dipping in this fruity extra virgin is pure pleasure and the perfect start to your BBQ.

2. Fresh summer salads (2 variations)

A BBQ without salad is like a summer without sun. Our favourite: rocket with tomatoes and feta.

Variation 1:

Sprinkle the sliced ​​tomatoes with a good balsamic vinegar and let it soak in. Add to the salad and pour a strong olive oil over it, such as Vassilakis Charisma or Estate (both 100% Koroneiki). Fan-tas-tic!

Variant 2:

Mix in a bowl:

– 1 tbsp honey

– 1 tsp mustard

– 3 tbsp transparent vinegar (e.g. Quince vinegar from Subbética or white balsamic vinegar from San Carlos)

– At least 7 tbsp Vassilakis Charisma or Estate

This vinaigrette binds lightly and gives a fresh, soft kick to your salad. Heavenly delicious!

3. From the grill – pure enjoyment

Meat, fish or vegetables: many people reach for sauces, but a good product needs little.

My tip:

Sprinkle the grilled dish on your plate with a dash of Fleur de Sel and a top olive oil.

– With fish: try the Kavalaria or the elegant Pathos.

– With steak or grilled vegetables: go for the intense Villa Magra Grand Cru from Franci.

Simplicity, but at its most delicious.
