Cut the parsley and dill into small pieces and place the herbs in a separate bowl. Then, pour a few tablespoons of oil into a regular glass, which you place in a small saucepan half full of water.
Step 3
Place the pot on the fire and wait for the water to boil. Then remove the dishes from the heat and take out the glass of oil. Drizzle the heated olive product over the vegetables or pasta and sprinkle with finely chopped herbs.
Step 4
To season the salad with olive oil, pour a few tablespoons of this product into the container with the chopped ingredients. Then stir the salad to distribute the oil evenly over the surface of the ingredients in the dish.

The taste of the salad will be richer if you add not just oil to it, but a specially prepared dressing. To prepare it in a deep ceramic bowl, combine a couple tablespoons of lemon juice with a little salt and pepper.

This vegetable oil is also good for frying and baking a variety of foods. To sauté meat, fish or vegetables, pour a little oil into a preheated skillet and place the required ingredients on top. For dishes that require baking in the oven, grease a baking sheet with olive oil and then place the desired items on it.
