Olives are delicious in various dishes and they can even be enjoyed all on their own along with your favourite beverage or on a plate accompanied by other foods. The key is know which foods to pair with your olives.
If you enjoy hummus, why not add some delicious green olives on top? Now, every time you take a scoop of hummus, you will get the extra flavour of those scrumptious olives too! Olives can also be roasted if you want to enjoy a different kind of flavour. Once they are roasted, you can add them to your favourite salad or even add some feta cheese. When roasting olives, try to use a variety so that you have plenty of colour. If you add herbs while roasting, it will also enhance the flavour even more.
For those who fancy baking, you could add sliced olives to your favourite bread recipe. You can add some to the mixture itself and to the top too. Not only will your bread have an amazing flavour, but it will look amazing too!
If you fancy a lamb stew with a generous helping of veggies, try adding some olives to the pot. Not only do the olives enhance the flavour of the stew, but they also take on an even better flavour after cooking slowly with the meat and vegetables.
Pizza should be one of your first thoughts when you plan on enjoying olives. No matter the ingredients you choose for your pizza, you can always add olives! Both green and black olives are great on pizza although most people choose black olives.
Olives can be added to various types of salads. They can be added in whole form or you can slice them if you prefer. Either way, you should always make sure that the seeds are removed. The seeds should ont be ingested and, if you don’t remove them, they could pose a choking risk.
