Olive oil and ice cream? Yes, you can do that! This ice cream recipe uses fruity single varietal arbequina extra virgin olive oil from Spain, which lends its characteristic flavor notes of almond and green apple. Serve with a touch of crunchy sea salt, chopped salted marcona almonds, or a drizzle of caramel.
