How do you make olive oil taste better?

But yes, you can either heat the olive oil or mix it with something (or both) and mellow it. Mixing with an acid like lemon juice or a good vinegar works well, and/or crushing garlic or herbs in it to make a paste or a dressing. You can cook it or just leave it as is.
