About Italian olives
Italian olives, a staple of Mediterranean cuisine, are celebrated for their robust flavor and versatility. Grown in Italy's sunlit groves, they come in a variety of types, such as green Castelvetrano or black Taggiasca, each with its own distinct taste and texture. Rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, olives support cardiovascular health and are a key component of the Mediterranean diet. They're also a source of antioxidants like vitamin E and polyphenols, which promote cellular health and reduce inflammation. However, olives are often cured in brine, which can make them high in sodium, so portion control is important for those monitoring salt intake. Whether enjoyed on their own, pressed into olive oil, or used to enhance pasta, salads, or charcuterie boards, Italian olives are both a flavorful and nutritious addition to your diet.
