There are many consumers who think of food when olive oil comes to mind. This is especially true of certified EVOO which is known for its many heart-healthy benefits and antioxidants. Yet, there is so much more to this valuable oil than one can imagine. Here is a look at the many ways, including cooking, in which olive oil can be useful.
Olive oil can be used on its own for health purposes and in salad dressings as well. One popular dressing is one using olive oil, salt, lemon juice or vinegar, and honey. This is one way to save money on salad dressings. The oil can also be used in baking if it is all one has, but there are some people who do not appreciate the taste of pure extra virgin olive oil.
As a result, they might choose to use a lighter version, but the antioxidants and other health benefits are in the cold pressed oils. For some individuals, this also means that it is a good oil to cook with, but there are those who disagree with this. So the average person will have to decide for themselves if they will cook with olive oil or use it raw.
To save money on beauty products, olive oil can replace a face moisturizer or even body lotion. There are some who use it in their hair as well as a conditioner for the scalp. This can replace a store bought conditioner for certain individuals since it can be used to seal the moisture that is in the hair after washing.
For this reason, there are those who turn to olive oil because it contains vitamin E which helps to reduce inflammation and keep the skin smooth and supple. This can replace the moisturizer that is used at night with good results. Olive oil is also good on the scalp and helps to tackle dryness that might occur in the hair itself.
In addition to cooking and beauty, there are everyday uses for olive oil around the home. It can be used to shine stainless steel whether it is a sink, utensils or another item. This oil can also be used to polish wooden furniture to give an extra sheen. If a door in the home is making noise, this can be the time to use olive oil to on the hinges.
A person can also use the oil to shine stainless steel and polish wooden furniture. It can also be used to shine shoes and boots made of leather including boots, belts, and other items that not only need to be shined but waterproofed. Olive oil can also be used in the food of pets like cats and dogs to keep them healthy and give their coats a nice sheen.
These are the different ways a person can save money using olive oil. Some people learn about these and other uses from friends and family members while others might learn from searching the internet or reading books. Doing some research will help a person use the oil in a way that is right for their situation.
