Comments Off on The Olive Pit 101 – “Advanced” Olives
Now that we’ve talked about what we consider to be “beginner” and “intermediate” olives, let’s talk advanced, you know, olives that are on the bolder side.
Lebanon has 2 delicious olives that we carry at The Olive Pit – the Green and Black Lebanese. These olives are both delicious in their own right. If you like a ripe olive go with the Black, but if you a firmer olive, try the green. They are both bold and assertive in flavor, which will tantalize your palate. |
One of our favorite olive mixtures is Lou Pistou, from France, which is a blend of ripe and green olives in a delectable wine vinegar and garlic brine. They’re very aromatic, with a strong herbal component. We think the Lou Pistou mix will become one of your favorite blends once you try these tender, rich olives.
