Oils and vinegars. We all cook with them, but most people don’t recognize these key ingredients for their healthy, tasty and unique qualities. But that’s all changing.

There has been a growing trend in specialty oils and vinegars over the past several years. Boutique shops, which specialize in gourmet products, are springing up around the country. There’s even an international franchise, appropriately called “Oil & Vinegar,” that has entered the U.S. market with stores as far east as Virginia and as far west as Washington state.

Shop owners attribute the growing oil and vinegar trend to Mediterranean-type cooking that Americans resoundingly are adapting into their diets. The new culinary style focuses on freshness and health—and you can’t get much healthier than olive oil, which is high in antioxidants, making it both heart- and skin-healthy.

While many people traditionally use vinegar to pickle their eggs and olive oil to moisten their pasta dishes, trendsetters like Maggie Lebherz , owner of L.O.V.E, which stands for Lebherz Oil and Vinegar Emporium, in Frederick, Md., is helping to change the way we use these food items. According to Lebherz, there are many uses for flavorful olive oils and vinegars.

“I use the vinegars on ice cream and drizzled on grilled fruit. The vinegars are also really good for marinating. They have a caramelizing effect if you marinate pork beforehand and then pan-fry it,” said Lebherz. “For olive oils you can do any number of things from putting it on a salad and dipping it with a baguette, to sautéing and grilling.”

There are many reasons why consumers prefer to buy oil and vinegar from smaller specialty shops rather than a typical grocery store. Aside from a larger variety of flavors and regions where the products are made, smaller shops typically work with producers who crush olives within hours of picking them, making the olive oil fresher and therefore healthier. Further, most shops tout the “customer experience” they offer, which larger chain grocery stores can’t.

According to the franchise Oil & Vinegar, “The focal point of the store is the ‘amphora wall,’ where an international selection of over 40 oils and vinegars are dramatically suspended in glass containers on a backlit wall. Customers select a bottle or bring in a previously purchased Oil & Vinegar bottle for a refill, and our staff dispenses the selection on-tap.”

At L.O.V.E., customers can roll up their shirt sleeves and bottle their own oil and vinegar from big containers called “fusties.”

And as for flavors, what are consumers looking for? While the dark chocolate balsamic vinegar at L.O.V.E. has gotten great press reviews, Lebherz said her biggest sellers are strawberry vinegar and Tuscan-herb olive oil.
