Pomace Olive Oil

There are many different types of olive oil. You can buy extra virgin olive oil, virgin olive oil, regular olive oil and even pomace olive oil. However, pomace is produced as a byproduct of olive oil; it is treated with chemicals and blended with olive oils to create pomace olive oil.

Making Pomace Olive Oil

According to the International Olive Oil Council, olive pomace is a solid material that is produced when making olive oil. Keep in mind that pomace is not restricted to olives. This solid material can be produced by crushing any fruit.

When making olive oil, pomace is usually considered a waste product. However, it can be used to make a different oil of its own, known as pomace olive oil. To make pomace olive oil, the solid pomace needs to be treated with chemicals. At this stage, the oil isn't edible, however. It's known as crude pomace oil. Crude pomace oil is then refined to make it edible. This is known as refined olive pomace oil.

However, most refined olive pomace oil is not sold as is — at least, not when it's intended to be used for culinary purposes. Instead, most refined olive pomace oil is mixed with virgin olive oil to enhance its flavor, nutritional benefits and antioxidant properties. The resulting product is known as olive pomace oil.
