.’m relatively new to Portugal and am enjoying cooking more Mediterranean style. What are the olive oils I should be looking for, both for frying/sauteing and for salads, dips, etc? I’ve been doing internet searches but coming up a bit short. Lisbon, if it matters. Im currently using Herdade de Esparão extra virgin.

Also, I would love to learn more about olive growing, pressing, the entire process, so if anyone has any suggestions for that, I’d appreciate that as well.

UPDATE - It appears that I wasn’t clear enough that I live here in Lisbon, Portugal (Europe). This isn’t for a visit.

I’d love comments & suggestions on my summer capsule. American living in Portugal, mid 50s, actively (but slowly) losing weight, slightly pear shape, Cool Summer Light Leaning. And clearly I tend to hyper focus on certain brands ha. I’m thinking of perhaps adding a cardigan, maybe another dress?
