For our Paesanella pitted olives we choose only the best olives: the “Schiacciatelle di Sicilia” from Nocellara del Belice. They are selected for colour, size and quality, before being aged for two years in brine.

Olives are one of the oldest foods on earth cultivated throughout the Mediterranean region, it is estimated, for about 7000 years. The trees were cultivated not only for their olives, but later also for their oil and wood. Since then, the types of recipes and uses of olives have multiplied. One of these is the drying of the olives, which in the past took place through the arrangement of the ripe olives in wicker baskets in alternating layers of salt and olive branches, covered and pressed (with stones and bricks) and left for a few weeks - so to drain the vegetation water. Our company wanted to revive this ancient flavor - dried black olives - but with modern processing and techniques. Our dried black olives come from Morocco, and reach the desired flavour, texture and colour. Their maturation offers high levels of anthocyanins, an antioxidant substance, which fights free radicals and has proven to be essential in the prevention of cancer and loss of bone density. But if the healthy factors weren't enough, our dried black olives are a tasty delicacy suitable for all palates, even the most refined ones.
