Cinnamon and Clove Green Olives Mustapha's
The ingredients are stunningly simple: cracked green olives, cinnamon, cloves, lemon, oil, bay leaf, water, salt and lactic acid. The results are a wonderful complexity of flavors that are perfect together. While the flavors are unusual, they are also subtle. No one note predominates and the perfect balance of spice, olives, brine and lemon keep you tasting and tasting. While this is a classic Moroccan olive, this is an unusual gourmet delight for western palates, and for those lucky enough to try it, it is bound to become a favorite.
The buttery firmness of the olives is contrasted with real lemons. The spice of the cloves is played off against the cinnamon. All together it is a rich experience that pairs well with cheese, slow cooked meats and heartily seasoned grains.
Don’t expect to find bright green olives with a crunch. There are no preservatives or chemicals in these Moroccan delights. The jar has bits of preserved lemon and spices floating in the brine, and the olives are blemish free and meaty.
A green, brown and yellow tile design is on the label of the 10-ounce hex jar with the gold lid. The jar is packed with olives grown in the Atlas Mountain range of Morocco. Wonderfully complex yet subtle olives, you must try them at least once. But I bet you’ll always order more!
