What is Green Olives with Pepper?
Green Olives with Pepper are brined green olives filled with, or prepared alongside, strips of red pepper. They are a familiar Mediterranean appetiser, served in Turkey and across many other regions where olives are part of everyday meals.
Their flesh is firm and meaty, with a tangy, salty brine balanced by the pepper’s mild sweetness. Serve them as part of a mezze spread, alongside bread and cheese, or add a few to salads and sandwiches. They are rich in fat for their size and provide some fibre, so a small portion can bring plenty of savoury flavour. If you prefer a milder saltiness, briefly rinse the olives before serving.
