Description

Colossal Greek Green Olives hand stuffed with a clove of steamed Garlic in Light Brine & Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Rather good.

First we take a decent sized Halkidiki olive, take the stone out and then cram the hole with the fattest piece of steamed garlic we can find… Even better, it’s all done by hand – occasionally the garlic might pop out but we’re sure you won’t mind fishing about and shoving it back in again… In light brine with a little olive oil to coat.

About Olives Et Al

In the early 90s, Giles and Annie Henschel embarked on a year-long adventure that would be the inspiration for Olives Et Al. Travelling on motorbikes through the Mediterranean, the Middle East and North Africa, they fell in love with the food they ate along the way. They couldn’t gather many souvenirs, but did gather recipes hoping to re-capture the essence of their experiences by recreating at home the foods they had enjoyed abroad. Using all the knowledge they’d collected during their travels, they launched Olives Et Al in 1993 to satisfy their own culinary cravings and to share great Olives with a wider audience.

The Olives Et Al team have been faithfully re-creating those recipes ever since, and have found many more, using traditional methods and top notch ingredients from the best suppliers they can find. They feel privileged to say that they’re still working with some of the people they met on that first journey as well as many more they’ve met on repeated trips back to old places and lots of new ones over the last 20 years. Today they are grateful to have a few awards for what they do and they thoroughly hope you like what you find.

How to use

All these olives are still marinating. Only recommendation is to consume everything (all the olives and all the oil) within 12 - 18 months and do not refrigerate them. They don't need it - even when opened. The oil is the preservative and also adds to the flavour.
