OLIVES FROM SPAIN

Posted by Terry Herman on December 3, 2013 at 10:18pm

I’ve had a love affair with olives since I was a young child.  Whether they were small ones, big ones, ones placed on my finger tips and then eaten, black or green, stuffed, dry cured, as a tapenade, added to salads, spreads or sauces, used as toppings or as a garnish, I’ve loved them all.

    Olives can truly make a dish.  Just try a Greek salad without black olives and then with and with vegetable oil and then with virgin olive oil and the difference is a Greek salad or something not. Chef LeeZ and Thai nationals might say: "same same but different".

      Thanks for reading my article and for your insight and suggestion.  I love the simplicity of a simple green salad with Greek Kalamata olives, but this event was only featuring Spanish olives and olive oil.  Happy cooking!
