Brief
Olive oil should be kept away from light and heat, so the worst places are on a winÂdow sill, next to the stove or on top of the refrigÂerÂaÂtor. Instead, store unopened botÂtles in a dark cupÂboard or cool baseÂment. Keeping it in the fridge is not a bad idea if it takes you more than a few months to go through an opened botÂtle. If it solidÂiÂfies, it’s totally fine — it will clear up when it’s back to room temÂperÂaÂture.
