This is the olive oil episode. This week, I speak with David Garci-Aguirre, the master miller at Corto. This one ingredient probably touches more dishes than any other ingredient except salt. But how much do we know about it? David likes to say that it's the ingredient that farm-to-table forgot. Nobody knows where it came from, who made it, or how it got made. But on this episode, we're going to change that.Did you know that much of the oil on the market is already rancid when you purchase it? This is one of the reasons that most extra-virgin olive oils have a low smoke point, and aren't recommended for sauteing with. But David says that fresh, high-quality olive oil is one of the most stable cooking oils there is.Besides rancidity and oil smoke points, you'll learn how Corto grows, harvests, produces, stores and packs its oil. They have an innovative bag-in-a-box system that protects the oil, making sure that the very last drop is as fresh as the first. They don't sell their oils at a retail level, but if you want to purchase it, use the link below to get it directly from their website.DAVID GARCI-AGUIRRE & CORTOCorto's InstagramDavid's InstagramBUY CORTO OIL HERE or Get it on AmazonRecipe: Wild Juniper Pan Roasted Scallops - Hari CameronRecipe: Chocolate Olive Oil Torte - Holly GaleCHEFS WITHOUT RESTAURANTSIf you enjoy the show and would like to support it financially, please check out our Sponsorship page (we get a commission when you use our links).  Get the Chefs Without Restaurants NewsletterPrivate Facebook groupChefs Without Restaurants InstagramSponsor- The United States Personal Chef AssociationOver the past 30 years, the world of the personal chef has grown in importance to fulfill dining needs.

On today's show, I'm joined by olive oil expert extraordinaire, David Garcia-Aguirre from Corto Olive Company with a primer on extra virgin olive oil, which he says is "the ingredient that farm-to-table forgot." Discover how olives are grown, harvested and pressed, how to choose the freshest EVOO at the market, how to cook with it, and get recipes galore ... and hear why David wants us all to think of EVOO as the "fresh-pressed juice of olives." David Garci-Aguirre is the Vice President of Operations and Master Miller at Corto Olive Company in Lodi, CA. With a focus on serving independent restaurants throughout the US, Corto uniquely harvests and produces fresh, premium-quality, award-winning Extra Virgin olive oils that enhance the flavor of foods. David is an olive oil guru who is dedicated to the advancement of high-quality olive oil production, research, and education. He's educating us today about what to look for at the market to know you're buying the freshest oil, how to store it at home to keep it fresh, and why heat, light, and air are the three biggest enemies of your bottle of olive oil. He teaches us about the latest innovations in packaging, how to use Extra Virgin olive oil to elevate everyday cooking, and why it's a nutritious addition to your meals. David will bust some myths about olive oil and take us behind-the-scenes at Corto to highlight their gorgeous olive groves and their harvesting, milling, storing, and packing processes.    Show Highlights:   David's life and work in Lodi, CA Why olive oil is the ingredient that “farm to table” forgot How olive oil is different from all other edible oils in that it's fresh-pressed juice that retains the flavors and nutrients Why all olive oils are NOT created equal--and most olive oil in your supermarket is already rancid before you even get it home! How Corto focuses on a new technology called “vineyard-style” planting that allows mechanized fall harvests of the fruit when it's perfectly ripe How most olive oil is produced with olives harvested by the old-style “tree-shaking” method that yields poor quality fruit not at the optimal ripeness How to tell if your olive oil is fresh by its smell and taste (Hint: it SHOULD have a taste!)

How the “Extra Virgin” olive oil designation is reserved for a natural, unrefined product (CA has the tightest legal standard for EVOO in the world!) Tips for buying olive oil: buy local, if possible, from a reputable company; make sure the oil is in dark glass, stainless steel, or a bag-in-box package, and always check the harvest date How flavor-lock (bag in box) packaging preserves the oil from light and air David busts the most popular myth regarding olive oil, which is that you should never saute or use high heat cooking with it Because of the many healthy compounds unique to olives, olive oil is the #1 food item studied for nutritional health in medical journals Easy salad dressing ideas using olive oil:  David keeps it simple with salt, citrus, and an oil variety that pairs with his food Liz relies on the standard go-to of olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, dijon mustard, honey, shallot or garlic, and salt and pepper Unusual ways to use olive oil: drizzled on ice cream, as a dip for dark chocolate truffles, poured on popcorn, and homemade mayonnaise How uses olive oil in her rendition of Ina Garten's recipe for gazpacho; it's made with cucumber, bell pepper, tomato, red onion, red wine vinegar, garlic, fresh herbs, and fresh corn kernels How to introduce kids to the wonders of olive oil with creative thinking David's final words: “Rethink how you think about olive oil.

In this interview, I chat with Mark Hayhoe, the owner of the k2 Milling, an artisanal flour mill in Beeton, Ontario, just outside of Toronto. As a third generation miller, Mark is a master miller in my mind and a wealth of knowledge when it comes to all things grains and milling. Mark tells us the fascinating history of milling in his family, which goes back to his grandfather, who set up a mill called Hayhoe Brothers in Pine Grove, Ontario, in the 1930s. Eventually, the mill became ‘Hayhoe Mills', which was managed by Mark until he sold it in 2007. In 2007, Mark started a new entrepreneurial venture: k2 Milling, an artisanal flour mill that operates on his family's rooted milling legacy. In this episode, we talk Mark's journey towards opening up his own mill, all the interesting organic grains and things he grinds into flours (like oats, blueberries, kale, mushrooms, corn, hemp, flax, sunflowers and wheat—of course) and why wheat became so popular throughout history. He also talks about what it's like to run an organic mill in particular and his idea for an organic food credit as a way to bring down the price of organic food and have healthier diets and improved health. This successful entepreneur owner also provides humble advice for others looking to start their own food business.

First Story: “The Master Miller’s Tale” Part 2 by Ian R. MacLeod THERE ARE ONLY RUINS left now on Burlish Hill, a rough circle of stones. The track which once curved up from the village of Stagsby in the valley below is little more than an indentation in the grass, and the sails of the mill which once turned there are forgotten. Time has moved on, and lives have moved with it. Only the wind remains. Once, the Westovers were millers. They belonged to their mill as much as it belonged to them, and Burlish Hill was so strongly associated with their trade that the words mill and hill grew blurred in the local dialect until the two became the same.
