Kiss the Cheese: Extra Virgin Olive Oil Jam

Liquid Gold Elegance | Velvety Mediterranean Soul | Artisan Cheese Pairing | Avant-Garde Texture | Pure Olive Essence

The Mediterranean Essence. Within the Kiss the Cheese collection, the Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) jam represents the ultimate tribute to Spanish heritage. This innovative preserve transforms the "liquid gold" of Murcia into a shimmering, spreadable delicacy. It is a masterful exploration of texture and fat, designed to bring the peppery, fruity, and grassy notes of premium olive oil to the cheese board in an entirely new dimension.

Preparation and Texture

This jam is a feat of culinary alchemy, achieving a translucent, silken consistency that glows with a pale emerald hue. The texture is exceptionally smooth and luxurious, coating the palate with a rich, buttery feel that slowly releases the complex aromatics of the oil. Unlike traditional fruit-based jams, this preserve focuses on the balance of savoury and sweet, highlighting the natural polyphenols of the olives. The result is a clean, sophisticated profile that offers a gentle peppery finish typical of high-quality Spanish extra virgin olive oil.

Serving Suggestion

The rich, unctuous nature of the EVOO jam makes it a versatile companion for cheeses that share its Mediterranean roots or those that require a silky contrast to a crumbly texture:

• Aged Hard Cheeses: Such as Manchego, Parmigiano-Reggiano, or Grana Padano
• Crumbly White Cheeses: Feta or a dry Salers
• Fresh Mediterranean Varieties: Buffalo Mozzarella or Burrata

Beyond the cheese course, this jam is a revelation when drizzled over dark chocolate ganache, served alongside a savoury panna cotta, or used as a base for a gourmet vinaigrette.
