Olive Oil Mister

Got a new kitchen tool (toy) today. Baking and other recipes often call for some type of oil (olive, canola, coconut, sunflower, sesame, grape seed, etc.); olive is my standby and, along with balsamic vinegar, what I use for salad dressing. Some recipes call for spraying or misting the oil; in the past I've purchased the store-bought aerosol cans but now there is a another option! Several brands offer a pumping aerosol but reviews I've read indicate many don't work too well. I recently purchased this stainless steel mister from William-Sonoma and so far it is working great! The lid serves double duty as a hand pump which builds up pressure in the canister. When fully compressed, it is supposed to spray for 15 seconds, which is much longer than I typically need.

I typically drizzle olive oil on my salads and many other meals; hoping this mister will help me to use less olive oil on my food.

Canister with lid/pump installed. Just pump the lid several times until resistance is felt, remove the lid, and spray!
