| Kalamatas are
the best known Greek olive. They are grown in the valley of Messina on the western
end of the Peloponnesean Peninsula, near the town of Kalamata. Kalamatas are very
attractive olives, with a distinctive almond shape and a beautiful deep purple-black
color. And they taste every bit as good as they look; meaty and firm, with a rich and
fruity flavor. Kalamata olives are traditionally served in a Greek village salad,
with feta cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. |
