Our house-cured olives available to take home
6oz jar $6 ($5.50 with return of glass jar)
Some days there's nothing better than a simple meal of fresh crusty bread, olives, cheeses and cured meats. We're finally bottling our olives so you can enjoy them in your home or on your next picnic. After tasting over 50 Italian olives, Vito selected his favorites based on taste, color and origin. They include red Cerignola from Puglia, green Castelvetrano from Sicily and black Taggiasche from Liguria. He cures the olives with an infusion of staple Italian herbs including rosemary, basil, sage, fennel, black and pink pepper. And the final product is delicious!
