With all the wine and cheese I consume it is important to make sure I get my fruit intake.
For anyone who enjoys cheese and wine then I have found the olive for you! Castelvetrano olives are an Italian olive from Sicily. Their beautiful bright green skin gives a fresh look, while their darker green flesh is meaty, soft with the perfect amount of saltiness. My favorite place to buy them is at Teitel Brothers on Arthur Avenue in the Bronx. They scoop and scoop and scoop into a plastic bag until you say, “Stop!” My co-workers and I then rip the bag open, while everyone fights to get their hands on the “last olive” while moaning about how good they are (as if it’s the first time they’ve had them). The price is never too expensive and the olives are consistently luscious.
