Molho de Azeite e Alho, or Olive Oil and Garlic Sauce, is a simple yet flavorful condiment rooted in Portuguese and Brazilian cuisines. Its main ingredients—extra virgin olive oil and fresh garlic—are gently heated to release aromatic flavors, often enhanced with salt, parsley, or chili flakes. This versatile sauce is used to complement grilled meats, fish, vegetables, or bread. Olive oil, rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and antioxidants, helps reduce inflammation and supports cardiovascular health. Garlic contributes its own health benefits, including antimicrobial and immune-boosting properties, as well as potential cholesterol-lowering effects. However, the sauce can be calorie-dense due to the oil content, so portion control is advised for those monitoring caloric intake. Offering a balance of traditional taste and nutritional value, Molho de Azeite e Alho is a delicious way to elevate everyday dishes while keeping health-conscious choices in mind.
