Abstract: | Variable quantities of leaves were added to ripe olives prior to extraction to determine their effect on the quality of the resulting olive oil. The addition of 1–3% w/w leaves improved the organoleptic quality. An increase intrans-2-hexenal aldehyde content occurred, giving the pleasant flavor of “freshly cut grass.” This compound was produced by the enzymatic breakdown of 13-L-hydroperoxide of linolenic acid in leaf homogenates. |
