This idea came about as we were moving towards a more plant based diet. We’d previously bought butter wrapped in paper but looking into plant based alternatives found that they were almost always in single use plastic. We then discovered that olive oil solidifies at low temperatures, around 7 degrees C and we had a eureka moment!
You’ll need:
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
A container, we used our old butter dish upside down!
A fridge!
Method:
Pour your olive oil into your container and place either at the back of the fridge or if that isn’t cool enough in freezer.
When spread is needed, simply remove and the olive oil will spread easily!
Zero Waste Tips
Use refill olive oil to avoid single use packaging!
