Kalamata is a region in Greece, famous for its production of olives and olive oils. In particular the Kalamata olive is often known as the Greek olive, and is distinct in taste and appearance from most green and black olives. When Kalamata olives are not used for olive oil, which is a fairly common use, they are normally brined, packed in olive oil or pickled in wine vinaigrette.
Unlike most green and black olives, Kalamata olives are a deep, rich aubergine in color. When they are soaked in vinegar or brined, they may appear almost dark brown or black. On the tree, these purple almond-shaped fruits are hard to miss because of their beautiful color. They also tend to pack more meat than the average black variety.
Most Kalamata olives are split prior to being brined or pickled, which allows the flavor, particularly of vinaigrette, to soak into the interior of the olive. Yet before you begin eating, be aware that these olives are usually sold with their seeds in. If you plan to serve these, eat them yourself, or add them to recipes, be sure to remove the seed first.
Many believe the taste of Kalamata olives is superlative to other varieties. They’re celebrated for their sweetness, their rich flavor, and their difference in appearance. Depending upon where you live, it may be challenging to find these wonderful treats. If they are unavailable in your local grocery store, check specialty food stores which have an olive bar, though you can also find this variety in jars and occasionally cans. Then you can stock up on these olives, and try other varieties to your heart’s content. |
