About Spanish olives

Spanish olives are a culinary staple with roots in Mediterranean cuisine, known for their vibrant flavor and versatility. Rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, they can support cardiovascular health when consumed in moderation. Olives are a good source of vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that protects cells from damage, and they also contain small amounts of iron, calcium, and fiber. Originating from Spain's extensive olive groves, they come in a variety of types, such as green manzanilla and black arbequina, often enjoyed as snacks, appetizers, or ingredients in dishes like tapas and salads. While their saltiness adds depth to their flavor, it's important to be mindful of their sodium content. Spanish olives are typically cured or marinated, enhancing their taste but also contributing to higher sodium levels, so balance is key in enjoying their healthy properties while avoiding excessive intake.
