Labneh with Za’atar, Crunchy Nuts & "EL" EVOO 🫒

⏱️ Prep: 10 minutes | Serves 2–4

Labneh is a thick, creamy Middle Eastern strained yoghurt with a lovely tangy flavour. Think Greek yoghurt, but richer and creamier.

Ingredients

250g labneh

3–4 tbsp La Maja EVOO (100% Arbosana), or more. Don’t be shy.

2 tbsp chopped mixed nuts

1–2 tsp za’atar

A handful of fresh basil, chopped

Flaky sea salt

Crusty bread, for dipping

Method

Mix the chopped nuts, basil and za’atar with a generous drizzle of La Maja EVOO.

Spread the labneh onto a plate, creating a little swirl.

Spoon the nut and herb mixture over the top.

Finish with more EVOO and a pinch of flaky sea salt.

Grab some crusty bread and get dipping!

The real star? La Maja 100% Arbosana EVOO. Delicate, fruity and quietly impressive.

Because exceptional olive oil makes even the simplest dish something special. 🫒

🎥 Made with love, filmed with olive oil. 🫒

🇮🇹 Two bruschette. One seriously good olive oil. 🫒

We start with the simplest — Bruschetta Romana. Toasted bread, rubbed with garlic, sea salt and a generous pour of Viola Il Sincero Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

Then we add 🍅 ripe tomatoes, 🌿 fresh basil, sea salt and plenty more Il Sincero for Bruschetta al Pomodoro.

Il Sincero is a 100% Moraiolo EVOO from Umbria — intense, herbal and beautifully peppery. Exactly the kind of olive oil that shines when the food is this simple. 🫒✨

Yesterday’s bread. Great ingredients. Nothing wasted.

Sometimes the simplest food really is the best. ❤️🇮🇹

Sometimes the simplest food is the best. 🍅🫒

Pan con tomate — ripe grated tomatoes, crusty toasted bread, sea salt and a seriously good extra virgin olive oil.

For this one, we went with Organic EVOO — 100% Moraiolo from Umbria. Robust, beautifully peppery and full of character.

A splash before toasting, a generous pour to finish. That’s where the magic happens.

Simple food. Exceptional olive oil.

One of those days. No time to cook, so we just put a few good things on the table and called it dinner 😁

Bread, tomatoes, anchovies, olives, cheese, chorizo…

Azienda Agraria Viola + Acetaia Marchi doing the heavy lifting. 🫒

Nothing fancy. Very little effort. We liked it a lot. 😂💚

Cook with your olive oil. Seriously. 🫒

Don’t save the good stuff for a little drizzle at the end. Get it in the pan.

Sauté your onions in it. Roast your vegetables with it. Fry your eggs in it. Add it to sauces, soups and stews. And yes, absolutely drizzle a bit more on top when you’re done.

Olive oil is an ingredient, not an ornament — and one of the simplest ways to bring more flavour into everyday cooking.

This is our Cuadrat Valley Fontfleurie Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive Oil getting put to work, exactly where it belongs.

So tonight, open the bottle, pour it into the pan and cook with it. 🌿💚

Meet Olivastro, one of the finest expressions of the Itrana olive. This exceptional olive oil bursts with fruity aromas of tomato, green banana, artichoke, celery, green apple, and fresh herbs. On the palate, you’ll notice hints of lettuce, celery, and basil, followed by a bold bitterness and peppery kick.

For us, this oil is about as close to perfect as it gets. If someone asked what a great Itrana olive oil should taste like, we’d proudly hand them a bottle of Quattrociocchi Olivastro. We save it for enjoying raw, drizzled over roasted potatoes, steak, pasta, or just about anything else. The possibilities are endless, and it’s definitely a must-try!
