1 tablespoon (medium) of Spiced olive oil (14 g) has 119 calories. That works out to 880 calories per 100 g. It contains 0.1 g of carbs, 0 g of protein, 13.4 g of fat and 0 g of fiber. Its 1.9 mg of Vitamin E covers 13% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 0 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Spiced olive oil is olive oil mixed with, or infused with, seasonings such as chilli flakes, dried herbs or pepper. The exact blend varies, and the oil can be prepared at home or bought ready to serve. Its flavour is fruity and rich, with a fragrant, sometimes gently hot finish; the texture stays smooth, with spice flecks in the oil.
It is often served as a dip for bread, especially with Mediterranean-style meals, or drizzled over salads, vegetables, soup or grilled fish. Nutritionally, it is almost entirely fat—about 99 g per 100 g—so a little goes a long way. Use a small dish for dipping, or add just a light drizzle when you want the seasoning without making a dish overly rich.

Spiced olive oil is made by combining olive oil with dry spices and letting their flavors infuse. Try chili flakes, black pepper, or dried oregano in a clean, dry jar. Avoid leaving fresh garlic or fresh herbs in oil at room temperature.
Spiced olive oil works well as a bread dip, a finishing drizzle for pasta or soup, or a flavor boost for roasted vegetables. Add it near the end of cooking when you want the spices’ aroma to stay noticeable.
Yes, spiced olive oil can be used for gentle sautéing. Keep the heat low to medium because spice flakes can scorch and turn bitter at high temperatures; for deep-frying, plain olive oil is a better choice.
Chili flakes, dried oregano, rosemary, black pepper, and smoked paprika all work well in spiced olive oil. Combine a few rather than adding everything at once, so one strong spice does not overpower the oil.
Spiced olive oil made only with dry spices can generally be kept in a cool, dark cupboard in a tightly closed, dry container. Refrigerate oil containing fresh garlic or fresh herbs, and use it promptly rather than storing it at room temperature.
Yes, you can add fresh garlic to spiced olive oil for immediate use, but do not leave the mixture at room temperature. Refrigerate leftovers and use them promptly; dried garlic is a more suitable choice for oil you plan to keep.
Yes, spiced olive oil makes a simple bread dip. Pour a small amount into a shallow dish so the spices are easy to scoop up, and add a little vinegar or lemon juice if you want a sharper flavor.
Yes, spiced olive oil can be drizzled over pizza just before serving. This keeps its spice aroma fresh and avoids burning the flakes in a hot oven; start with a light drizzle so it does not make the crust greasy.
Spiced olive oil may taste hot if it contains chili, but the word “spiced” does not necessarily mean spicy-hot. Oregano, rosemary, and black pepper add aroma or warmth without the same heat as chili flakes.
Yes, spiced olive oil can flavor vegetables, fish, or meat before cooking. Keep raw meat or fish separate from any marinade you plan to serve, and discard marinade that has touched raw food unless you cook it thoroughly.
