Comments Off on Penna Gourmet Foods Offers Gourmet Olives And Olive Products

If there’s a favorite vegetable among vegetarians, the olive probably ranks pretty high. Besides being tasty and complementing dishes like pizza, salads, wraps and pitas and pastas, the olive—which is technically classified as a fruit—is rich with monounsaturated fat—a component linked in research studies with maintaining good cholesterol levels.
Penna Gourmet Foods is a family-owned farm that has operated since 1979. Penna Gourmet Foods grows, packages and processes gourmet olives using modern microbiology technology that is superior to older processing methods. Penna Gourmet Foods provides numerous olive products, including jars of various whole, pitted and stuffed varieties, as well as spreads and other olive-based delicacies. Penna Gourmet Foods provides fresh olives to cure at home for the people who enjoy the art of home processing and canning. Penna Gourmet Foods Fresh Olives are available starting around the middle of September (weather permitting). Olive lovers can visit the Penna Gourmet Foods site at GreatOlives.com for recipes, home curing techniques—including the Partida Style and Lye Process—online shopping and more information.
