In a world where food sensory tasting is increasingly valued, ONAOO, in addition to its courses for olive-oil tasters, is excited to present its courses dedicated to table olives, a unique opportunity to deepen the knowledge of this typical product of our food culture that in recent years has been achieving growing success.
The IOC defines table olives as “the product prepared from the sound fruits of varieties of the cultivated olive tree that are chosen for their production of olives, treated to remove its bitterness and preserved by natural fermentation, or by heat treatment, with or without the addition of preservatives, packed with or without covering liquid.”
This delicious food can be classified into 3 categories: green olives (harvested before their ripening), olives turning colour (harvested before the stage of complete ripeness) and black olives (harvested when fully ripe).
Your course Lead will be Roberto De Andreis, expert and member of the Table Olive Group of the International Olive-Oil Council, supported by many other experts.
