The Best Italian Bread Dipping Oil Recipe
Report
Most Italian recipes begin and end with a good olive oil- one of my faves for cooking and tasting right out of the bottle is- Colavita first cold pressed. It’s a perfect balance between fruity and spicy with the most delicate flavor.

Ingredients
- ¾ cup extra virgin olive oil I suggest Colavita brand
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar good quality variety from Modena Italy
- 2 cloves garlic cut in quarters
- 3 tablespoons fresh oregano minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh Rosemary minced
- 3 tablespoons fresh basil minced
- Coarse sea salt + black pepper to taste
- 1 baguette, ciabatta or sourdough boule
Instructions
- 1. In a medium mixing bowl add all ingredients. Use a whisk and stir vigorously for a minute. Let marinate at least one hour before serving. The oil and vinegar may separate and that's okay. If you prefer you can stir again before serving with your favorite bread.
- Enjoy with delicious bread of your choice!
Notes
- The best bread for Italian olive oil and balsamic vinegar dipping is crusty bread with a soft interior. You want good quality bread that will hold its shape when dipped in the oil and not fall apart completely.
- I recommend using high-quality ingredients. You will really taste the flavor difference and it is worth it!
- Don’t use a jar of minced garlic. This makes a huge difference in the overall taste of the Italian bread dipping oil.
