Not even Indiana Jones had it as difficult to find the Holy Grail as we Spaniards have it to find a good offer on oil. And it is that prices do not stop rising and some brands already exceed 10 euros per liter. Fortunately stores like El Corte Inglés continue to lower prices and this is another offer in olive oil to take into consideration: April olive oil at €6.35/liter (without discount €6.50/liter).
ABRIL – Mild olive oil 0.4º bottle 1 liter
Mild olive oil discounted at El Corte Inglés
Although it is a more unknown brand, Abril oils come from Ourense and have been active since 1962. The brand named its oils in honor of the April fair of Seville that the founder of the company liked so much.
Is a Family business that continues to manufacture its oils with care and respecting the olives used to make it as much as possible.. And that also in recent years has grown and is distributed in more than 30 countries.
With the above, what we are trying to say is that it is not just any brand. But It is a very good brand of oil even though it is not one of the most recognized. And even if the reduction is only a few cents, the truth is that any type of savings helps us. As my mother says: every stone makes a wall.
It’s about a mild flavored oil that is perfect for those who do not prefer to feel the bitterness or sting of the oil. With it you can dress salads or add it to your grilled fish to give a unique touch, one of those that you want to dip bread.
Abril has a most striking golden hue and with it you can give that distinctive touch to your gazpachos or creams. It is a perfect oil both for frying and for cooking sauces, stews, meats, vegetables and even desserts.. It will bring a soft and subtle touch of olive to any dish.
It is true that with the one that is falling we can resort to other options that replace olive oil. But this liquid gold is irreplaceable and is part of the charm of Spanish gastronomy. At the moment thinking about replacing it is not in the plans of many of us.
