Krinos Green Cracked Olives

If you are looking for olives with a more robust flavor, Krinos Cracked Green Olives could become a new pantry favorite! Handpicked in Greece, we “crack” the olives so that the brine can penetrate into the fleshy meat. Our large green olives are perfect for antipasti and meze platters and hors d’oeuvres spreads. And they are delicious and served with extra virgin olive oil, herbs, and lemon peel. Use Krinos Cracked Green Olives to add Greek flair to sauces, dips, and tapenades, and as a garnish for meat, fish, and poultry dishes. Rich in vitamins and antioxidants, green olives are a mainstay of the heart-healthy Mediterranean Diet.
