Popis: This study aimed to investigate the quality parameters and the oxidative stability (180 days of storage) of a water–oil emulsion formulated with Calabrian (Italy) monovarietal Agristigna extra virgin olive oil and apple vinegar. The best extra virgin olive oil/apple vinegar ratio was found to be 85/15 (v/v) and lecithin (2% w/v) was the best additive to reach proper stability and viscosity over time. An increase of lightness parameters was evidenced in both products in a storage time-dependent manner. During storage, both oil and dressing showed a free acidity level beyond the accepted limit for extra virgin olive oil, whereas a slight increase of the peroxide value was observed only for Glasoil at the end of the observation time without affecting sensory attributes. A general decrease of phytochemicals was observed for extra virgin olive oil and Glasoil, with different reduction trends and degrees depending on the chemical class. A lower stability of Glasoil during shelf-life was confirmed by the worsening of the rheological features and by the polyunsaturated fatty acids reduction (up to −21.71%) with a corresponding increase of the monounsaturated fatty acids/polyunsaturated fatty acids ratio (about +25.69%).
