sparta-gourmet_what should I know about Olives
Olives are the small fruits that grow on olive trees. Their healthy fats are extracted to produce olive oil. Olives have high nutritional value: They contain 115–145 calories per 3.5 ounces (100 grams) and 11–15% fat. Olives are also a good source of vitamin E, iron, copper, and calcium.

Sparta Gourme Q&As Mediteranean Diet
Olives and olive oil play a key role in the Mediterranean diet, a healthy cuisine based on typical Mediterranean ingredients and cooking. Research has shown that the traditional Mediterranean diet reduces the risk of heart problems and other chronic diseases, such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s
Sparta Gourmet Q&As - Extra Olive Oil vs Regular Olive Oil
Extra virgin olive oil is the naturally extracted juice from fresh olives. This is why extra virgin olive oil has a fruity aroma and rich taste. All the other types of olive oils – “pure”, “light”, and simple “olive oil” – have been refined, a process that removes much of the aroma and flavor from the olives, including their natural antioxidants.
No, it doesn’t! All olive oils have pretty much the same energy value. The word light only refers to their lighter flavour, color and aroma.
Sparta Gourmet Q & As - Most common varieties
There are hundreds of varieties growing throughout the world. The most common varieties of whole olives in the Mediterranean are:
• Green Olives
• Black Olives
• “Kalamon” Olives
Freshly picked olives are very bitter and require curing or processing, because eating them raw is not a pleasant option.
Sparta Gourmet Q & A's
Keep your oil in a cool, dark place. Always avoid heat and light. Keep in mind that extra virgin olive oil is NOT harmed by refrigeration.
Of course! Frying food with extra virgin olive oil is an excellent way to add flavor and keep it healthier. Remember: The higher the quality of the oil, the higher the smoke point will be, hence a better result. Lower quality oils will smoke at a lower temperature.
