Consumers are increasingly attracted to innovative, gourmand, and sustainable food products. This has led to a growing interest in flavored olive oils through co-milling processing. This study explores the production and characterization of flavored olive oils obtained by co-milling olives with orange pomace, black pepper, and hemp seeds, aiming to enhance their sensory and compositional properties while promoting sustainability through the valorization of agri-food by-products. The flavored olive oils and their control samples were analyzed for free acidity, tocopherols, phenolic compounds, volatiles, and sensory profiles. The flavored oils exhibited an acceptable hydrolytic state and peculiar sensory notes, depending on the ingredients used, as well as enhanced compositional qualities. This research highlights the potential of using oranges and hemp by-products in flavored oil production, offering an innovative approach to reducing food waste, with the possibility of future industrial applications.

The aim was to study the shelf-life over 18 months of storage (no light and oxygen exposure) of chili peppers flavoured olive oils comparing flavouring methods of co-milling of fresh chili peppers with sound olives at mill scale with temporary and permanent infusion of dried chili peppers in olive oil. Tocopherols, secoiridoids and capsaicinoids by HPLC-DAD, volatile compounds by HS-SPME-GC-MS, and sensory profiles were studied. The decrease in tocopherols and secoiridoids was greater in "infusion" samples, while a significant increase in capsaicinoids was observed in "permanent infusion" samples.

The possibility of enriching the oil produced from Leccino cultivar olive fruits with phenolic and volatile compounds by adding olive leaves (2.5%) during industrial-scale production were investigated. Furthermore, the influence of the addition of leaves on the oil quality, composition, and oxidative stability during storage for 6 and 12 months was studied.

In the context of the olive oil flavoured with chili peppers, the aim of this study was to compare co-milling of sound olives and fresh chili peppers at mill scale to infusion of dried chili peppers in oil, using the same batch of olives for all oils. Capsaicinoids by HPLC-DAD, volatile profile by HS-SPME-GC-MS and HS-GC-IMS and sensory profile were characterized. Capsaicinoids were statistically higher in oils prepared with green (52.

Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), grape seeds (GS) and pomegranate seeds (PS) are very popular for human consumption because of their nutraceutical properties. A co-milling of olives with GS or PS was carried out with the aim of a preliminary study of the lipidic and phenolic characteristics of the obtained vegetable oils, also during their shelf life. Results show that the use of GS and PS in the olive co-milling enriches the oil in healthy compounds, such as punicic acid and γ-tocopherol.
