I have fallen in love with these. Craig saw several varieties of olives on the 50% off clearance table at Publix a while back so he bought them. We had never tried some of them. One of them was a bright green olive. The brand was Flora and they were labeled La Siciliana. Did a little research and found they were castelvetrano olives. They have a lovely buttery, briny taste that is just yummy. You can snack on them with a hard cheese like parm or pecorino romano, with maybe some orange segments or use them in cooking. We used them last night in the oven braised chicken thighs with fennel, onion, tomatoes, the olives, etc. We also used them in a no-cook linguine with green olives and various other things that was in Bon Appetit in June.
If you like or love olives, give these a try for sure.
