Whole Nocellara green olives in brine – Secrets of Sicily

  • How Nocellara Green Olives are produced

    grown on the slopes of Etna, our Nocellara Etnea variety olives are crushed and processed thanks to a process
    of natural brining which allows it to maintain its crunchiness and sweetness.

  • The origin and quality of ingredients and processing

    Our Segreti di Sicilia line of preserves was born from the love for this land and its traditions, from the scents of our childhood, from our grandmother's secrets and from the rediscovery of an authentic and genuine past. Each product speaks of a specific territory, of a biodiversity that the world envies us. We choose each of them from our own crops or from our network, small and local productions and farmers who work the land with the same passion and respect as in the past. These genuine products are then transformed in our modern canning plant with the help of latest generation machinery. We use innovative cooking and processing techniques that guarantee absolute respect for the original recipe and, at the same time, the preservation of all the organoleptic characteristics of the fresh product and its main nutritional aspects. The absence of preservatives and colorings allows you to taste a genuine product.

Further Information

Nocellara olives, a native Sicilian variety, are particularly rich in easily digestible fiber which helps to regulate the functioning of the intestinal system. Furthermore, thanks to the presence of Vitamin E, beta-carotene and antioxidants, they help fight free radicals, reduce bad cholesterol and blood pressure, preventing cardiovascular diseases. These olives are preserved in brine without adding any ingredients so as to preserve the original taste of the fresh product.

We recommend consuming whole Nocellara green olives in brine as they are, without further processing. The intense and spicy flavor of the olives, due to the maturation in brine, makes them special. They can be placed on a cheese and cured meat platter, accompanied by gourmet bruschetta or pitted and inserted into vegetable or pasta salads. If they appear excessively salty on the palate, they can be rinsed briefly under fresh running water.

A typical Sicilian recipe also includes an alternative use of green olives in brine: they are rinsed under running water, pitted and left to dry for a few hours. Then they are seasoned in a bowl with sliced ​​carrots, chopped celery, crushed garlic cloves, mint leaves, chopped chilli pepper, red wine vinegar and plenty of extra virgin olive oil. They are left to rest for a day, stirring often and consumed as an appetizer.

For our artichoke hearts we only use Sicilian "Violetto" artichokes, a typical variety grown in various areas of the island and in particular in the south-eastern ones. To these we add, during processing, Frantoi Cutrera extra virgin olive oil (Biancolilla variety) and typical aromatic herbs that go well with the artichoke, i.e. oregano, spicy chilli pepper and mint.
