For some jalapeno fingerling potatoes, I roasted them with the Apollo Sierra olive oil. They roasted with the most savory flavor profile. They came out perfectly crisp as well. Just adding a pinch of salt and pepper was the only other ingredient I used. The Apollo olive oil gave my potatoes the rest of the flavor. Garnished and served with slices of jalapeno it was a perfect side dish.

Now olive oil is not just for cooking, its great in desserts as well. So for our dessert tonight, I used Apollo olive oil Sierra. The dessert was a nice frozen Greek yogurt blackout pie, drizzled onto was the Sierra olive oil.

 

 

CRUST

1 sleeve graham crackers (9 standard-size ones; about 5 oz.)

¼ cup old-fashioned oats

2 Tbsp. Dutch-process cocoa powder

2Tbsp. light brown sugar

1 tsp. kosher salt

6 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted

 

FILLING AND ASSEMBLY

4oz. bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped (about ¾ cup)

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, Apollo Sierra. plus more for drizzling

2 1/4 cups whole-milk Greek yogurt, divided

1/2 tsp. kosher salt, plus more

 3 large egg whites

1/2 cup (packed) plus 1 Tbsp. light brown sugar, divided

 

9" pie plate

 

STEP 1 OF CRUST

Break the graham crackers and place them in a food processor. Combine the oats, cocoa powder, brown sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. (Alternatively, in a larger bowl, carefully smash graham crackers with a smaller bowl into very fine crumbs, then mix with remaining ingredients.) Using a spice mill or mortar and pestle, crush the oats.) Pulse until the flour is finely crushed, then add the butter and pulse again until mixed. When pressed, the crust should hold together but fall apart when forcefully probed with a finger. If necessary, add 1 tbsp melted butter to bring the crust together.

 

 

In an equal layer, press the crust into the base and two-thirds of the way up the sides of the pie dish. 10 minutes before filling, place in the freezer.

 

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate and 12 cup oil. Allow to cool slightly. Distribute to a large bowl, then add 1½ cups yogurt and ½ tsp. salt and mix thoroughly.

 

 

 

In a medium mixing bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until white and frothy, about 1 minute. While the mixer is running, gradually add 12 cup brown sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks form, about 3 minutes more. Fold in one-third of the meringue to the chocolate mixture using a big rubber spatula (this will help lighten it so that the rest of the meringue will be easier to add without deflating it). Fold in the remaining meringue until no streaks remain. Transfer to prepared crust, keeping the filling inside the crust's edge and mounding toward the middle if necessary. Freeze the pie for at least 3 hours, or until it is firm.

 

 

In a separate dish, combine the remaining 34 cup yogurt, 1 tablespoon sugar, and a sprinkle of salt. Before serving, dollop the yogurt mixture onto the pie or pieces. Drizzle with Apollo Sierra olive oil.

Garnish with cocoa nibs.
