Dobbies Farm Foodhalls offer a range of freshly poured and bottled gourmet oils and balsams.
From extra virgin olive oil in its pure natural glory and aged balsamic vinegar, to an amazing variety of infusions, customers select their preferred bottle shape and size and then have it filled with their chosen oil or balsam.
The infused oil range extends from basil infused extra virgin olive oil, to garlic, walnut, basil, black truffle, lemon, rosemary and Mediterranean herbs. The balsam range boasts wonderful flavours like raspberry balsam, fig, chocolate orange and cinnamon, lemon, tomato and blackcurrant.
When bottles are empty customers can even bring them back and have them filled again for just the refill price. Prices start at £3.34 for 100ml and go up to £20 for 1 litre bottles.
Perfect sampled with chunks of fresh bread, your pack contains the following gourmet oils and balsams:
Lemon Infused Olive Oil – a glorious fresh aroma and fruity flavour with extracts of fully ripened lemons, this oil is wonderful with marinades, sauces, salads and fish. Try it drizzled over salmon steaks then baked in foil or make a stunning dressing by combining it with raspberry balsam.
Black Truffle Infused Olive Oil – with a wonderful nutty smell, this oil is the gourmet’s choice. Try adding a dash to sauces, soups, pasta and risottos to add a new dimension. It can be used instead of truffles or with them to enhance the flavour.
Chocolate, Orange & Cinnamon Vinegar – a stunning desert vinegar, get creative and drizzle over deserts like vanilla ice-cream or warm crepes with a splash of cream.
Fig Balsam Vinegar – perfect drizzled over fresh figs with a dollop of mascarpone or over succulent strawberries, it’s also a lovely accompaniment to blue cheese and fresh bread. The balsam is versatile, matching sweet and savoury dishes well, and is great with exotic cuisine.
