Graza's new high-heat olive oil is here — everything you need to know about Frizzle
It's time to make room in your pantry for Graza's newest extra-virgin olive oil: the brand just launched Frizzle, a high-heat cooking oil for frying, grilling, wok cooking, broiling and more. It joins Drizzle, which is more of a finishing oil, and Sizzle, which is best for cooking on low to medium heat. While you can buy Frizzle in Graza's signature bright green squeezy bottle, it's also available as a spray or in a big jug — a first for the brand.

Graza Frizzle Olive Oil
Graza's Frizzle olive oil is made from a mix of olive pomace oil, which is the tapenade or paste left over after the brand makes its extra-virgin olive oils. It's naturally refined, so there's no chemicals or artificial additives in its formula, and it has a neutral buttery flavor, according to the brand. Frizzle's smoke point is up to 490 degrees Fahrenheit, which means you can cook with it over high heat before it starts to smoke and burn. Compared to Graza's Sizzle oil, Frizzle's smoke point is 80 degrees higher — you'll want to use it for frying potatoes, grilling burgers and broiling food in the oven. Sizzle, on the other hand, is best for sauteing or roasting at low to medium temperatures.
You can buy Frizzle in three formats: a 25.4-ounce squeezy bottle, a spray bottle and a two-liter jug. All of Graza's olive oils are available in squeezy bottles, but the spray and jug are firsts for the brand. The squeezy bottle helps you control how much oil you add to a skillet or wok, while the spray bottle helps you quickly cover large areas, like a sheet pan or grill. You can use the jug to refill the squeezy bottle or pour cups of oil at once, like while deep-frying.
As a Graza devotee, I'm excited that the brand is adding a high-heat cooking oil to its lineup, especially before this spring and summer's barbecue season. I can't wait to use it on a grill to make veggies, fish and meats, and a griddle to make pressed sandwiches and grilled cheese. I much prefer the taste of olive oil to canola or seed oils, so I always choose it when I can. Being able to now reach for Graza EVOO when I'm cooking at high temperatures gives me more flexibility in the kitchen, and lets me stick to my favorite olive oil brand almost 100% of the time.
