Our 100% sicilian Green Olive Paté is an authentic explosion of flavors, highlighting the unique taste of fennel and giving the product a fresh, aromatic touch that sets it apart from the usual olive tapenade. It’s not just a condiment, but a sensory experience that encapsulates the entire Sicilian artisan tradition. The main ingredient is the Nocellara dell’Etna olive, a premium variety that grows at the foot of Mount Etna and, with its intense and slightly fruity taste, enriches every recipe with character.
Every step of the production process is carefully crafted with respect for nature’s rhythms and artisanal tradition:
-
Hand-picking at the perfect stage of ripeness to ensure freshness and aromatic intensity.
-
Brining, which removes the natural bitterness and ensures optimal preservation.
-
Washing and chopping, creating the perfect texture, neither too fine nor too coarse.
-
Flavoring with fennel, basil, and other fresh spices, which, along with the olives, create a flavor balance where the fresh, herbaceous fennel notes stand out elegantly, giving a distinctive touch.
-
Adding vinegar, which not only enhances the flavor but also ensures natural preservation.
The entire process is entirely handmade, without the use of colorants, preservatives, or chemical additives, preserving the flavors and organoleptic qualities. The bain-marie preservation, the same method the grandmother used to preserve the authentic flavors, ensures a high-quality product, perfect for enjoying year-round.
