Mixed Green Halkidiki & Kalamon Olives – Description

Green Olives of Halkidiki

Green Olives of Halkidiki are world famous and naturally produced in abundance in the region of Halkidiki.
They have an oval shape and a yellow-green color, a slightly acidic taste and a fruity aroma.
During the harvest, we pick one by one in September and October.
The olive has 74% water, 1% protein, as well as vitamins and minerals. It also contains monounsaturated acids which, proven by studies, reduce cardiovascular diseases, inflammation and blood pressure.
It accompanies the Greek salad and is an ideal appetizer for a healthy diet. Also, you can create wonderful combinations with oregano, hot pepper flakes, coriander, rosemary and other Mediterranean herbs.

Kalamata Olives

Kalamon olives are probably the most famous olives in the world.
They are cultivated all over Greece and especially in the Peloponnese.
Kalamon olives are crisp, firm, with a subtle fruity taste, which is also salty, slightly bitter and vinegary.
Kalamon olives have a uniform but varying chocolate to dark brown or violet color and are characteristically pointed.
You can use them as a meze or appetizer, in salads and especially in the Greek village salad, they accompany and are used in many recipes.

How to Use & Serving Suggestion

First, remove the desired amount of olives from the package, in a deep plate or bowl.
Next, rinse with lukewarm water for a few seconds under the tap, and then fill the container with water so that the water level covers all of your olives.
We leave them for one to two hours, so that the saltiness goes away.
Then, remove the water, and let them dry for a few minutes.
Finally, we add some Extra Virgin Olive Oil, mix them so that they go everywhere – and if we want – any other spice of our liking such as oregano, bukovo or some other ingredient such as lemon, vinegar, yogurt, or even soy sauce. Have fun!
