This November, Bodacious is delighted to introduce our exquisite Pairing of the Month—Porcini Mushroom & Sage Infused Extra Virgin Olive Oil paired with Italian Fig Dark Balsamic. This duo promises to elevate your culinary creations with its unique blend of earthy and sweet flavors, perfect for the season of hearty meals and festive gatherings.
Porcini Mushroom & Sage Infused EVOO: Starting with the subtly rich flavor of porcini mushrooms, this oil captures the essence of the forest floor’s bounty. The addition of fresh sage rounds out the taste with its light, peppery, and somewhat minty notes, resulting in an olive oil that is as aromatic as it is flavorful. It’s a perfect match for autumnal recipes, offering a gentle reminder of the earth’s natural richness.
Italian Fig Dark Balsamic: Our Italian Fig Dark Balsamic is a celebration of autumn’s depth, featuring the luscious sweetness of ripe Italian figs seamlessly blended with the robust profile of our Traditional 18 Year Style dark balsamic. The result is a balsamic that echoes the complexities of the season with notes of red fruit, jammy fig, and a subtle undercurrent of tart plum.
Elevate Your Appetizers: Brush our Porcini Mushroom & Sage Infused EVOO over grilled crostini and top with smoked Gouda cheese for an appetizer that perfectly balances smoky, earthy, and creamy flavors. Alternatively, drizzle our Italian Fig Dark Balsamic over goat cheese served with crackers for a simple yet sophisticated starter that will impress your guests.
Marinate and Roast: Transform your beef roasts by marinating them in a mixture dominated by our featured olive oil. The Porcini Mushroom & Sage Infused EVOO infuses the beef with deep, savory notes, making each bite succulent and rich in flavor.
Create Divine Dressings and Marinades: Mix 1 part Italian Fig Dark Balsamic with 2 parts Porcini Mushroom & Sage Infused EVOO and add your choice of seasoning to craft a dressing that’s both innovative and invigorating. This dressing works beautifully on a harvest bowl filled with wild rice, roasted butternut squash, and diced apples—each ingredient enhanced by the dressing’s sweet and earthy character.
Dipping Delight: For a quick and enticing dip, blend equal parts balsamic and olive oil. It’s perfect for a pre-dinner snack or a casual, interactive appetizer.
