Salted olives
Olive lovers appriciate this product for its diverse flavors, nutritional benefits, and historical significance. They have, indeed, been a cornerstone of many cultures for thousands of years. These small popular fruits come from the Olea europaea tree. Consequently, they hold a notable place in history for their versatility and health properties.
The history of olives goes back to thousands of years ago in the Mediterranean region. For example, ancient Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians highly valued them as a nutritional fruit, also as a simbol of peace. They were important not just for food and symbolism , but also for medicine, and religious ceremonies. In fact, the olive tree was often called the “tree of life,” representing peace, wisdom, and abundance.
Furthermore, olives carry great cultural importance across many societies. They are an important element in Mediterranean cuisine, and are regularly used in traditional dishes, oils, and tapenades.
Nutritionally, olives are rich in monounsaturated fats and antioxidants. Therefore, they offer significant health benefits, such as supporting heart health and providing anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, they are a source of essential vitamins and minerals.
What Are Salted Olives?
Unlike olives preserved in brine or Olive oil, salted olives are a traditional preparation. Fresh, raw olives are cured solely with coarse sea salt to make salted olives. This ancient method is often called “dry-curing” or “salt-curing.” Essentially, the salt draws out the olives’ natural bitterness and moisture through osmosis. Consequently, this results in a deeply concentrated flavor, a wrinkled appearance, and a firm, meaty texture.
Overall, this process is slow and requires careful attention and the final result is an olive with an intense, complex flavor. Therefore, its profile is both uniquely savory and deeply satisfying.
