Where does our antipasti come from?
Kalamata Olives
The reddish brown to black Kalamata olive is a Greek olive variety. The almond-shaped olive is very fragrant and has a slightly salty taste. It is harvested in the region of Messinia, after it has matured in peace in the Mediterranean sun.
Manzanilla Olives
The Manzanilla olive is at all one of the most popular varieties of olives and originally comes from Spain. Manzanilla means ‘small apple’ in Spanish and refers to the typical shape of these table olives. Manzanilla olives are harvested both when they are green and black and shouldn’t be missing from any tapas plate.
Jalapeño
The jalapeño [xalaˈpeɲo], is a small to medium-sized, spicy pepper that is named after the Mexican city of Xalapa (formerly known as Jalapa). Jalapeño is one of the chilli varieties with a particularly high heat level. The pods have a similar shape and colour as peppers; unripe, tey are green, with increasing ripeness they turn a dark red.
Sun-dried Tomatoes
Fresh tomatoes are pretreated with salt to make dried tomatoes. The juice that escapees from the tomatoes evaporates in the sun. However, dried tomatoes can also be made using drying systems. Dried tomatoes have an intense, fruity-sweet flavour and are produced in many southern European countries.
Chilli
The chili pepper belongs to the family of peppers and like the potato or the tomato, belongs to the nightshade family. Chilli peppers are usually referred to only as 'chilli' and gained great fame by the national dish 'chili con carne’ native to South America.
Roasted peppers
Roasted peppers are a perfect starter and make a great combination with other antipasti. The flambé pepper features a fruity, sweet, slightly smoky note and is usually served without the skin.
