What is your favourite type of olive?
For me, it's a tie between Kalamata olives and trakistes!
Elies tsakistes are green olives that traditionally are cracked with a stone, then washed and kept in salted water to get rid of the bitterness. These olives are enjoyed all year around and they can be found all over Cyprus! And now you can make them yourself 😃
I have been eating these olives since I arrived back in the island, they are fruity and really delicious, you will be licking your fingers!

Umm, can you guess? 😁
The NO olive 😅
It still sounds a bit like a olive 😂
Green with a piece of spicy pepper inside ❤️ I can eat a jar full of those without even blinking 😅😅😅
Oh yes, these are epic
Oh wow 😯 I need to try them!
I think I like black olives more. Out of the ones we got here, the black olive is more delicious!
Me too! I prefer black olives, they are so flavorful.
My favourite black ones are the kalamata ones 👌🏼
I love olives 🥺. My favorites are angora, volou, kalamata 😍. 🫒 mine 🥺
Oh yes, volou are so good as well, I completely forgot about these.. never tried angora before 🤔
🤔 I will double check the name but I find them at a Greek supermarket. Those are black and raisin like texture, like the Moroccan olives but these are a bit sweeter. I will take a picture of them next time!
I do like kalamatas
Great choice Jane 👌🏼
At fault I don't know the names of some of the others 🤣
