Nicoise Olives - WholeNiçoise olives are small, dark olives traditionally associated with the south of France, prized for their firm texture and concentrated, slightly briny flavor. Cured in brine and finished with a touch of sunflower oil and thyme from Provence, they develop a balanced profile with subtle herbal notes and a clean, savory finish. Their size and intensity make them a distinctive addition to Mediterranean dishes. Packaged in an 11-pound foodservice tub, they are ideal for high-volume kitchens, catering, and entertaining. Use them in classic preparations like salade niçoise, or serve alongside cheeses, charcuterie, and crusty bread as part of a composed spread. They also work well in tapenades, grain salads, and warm dishes where their flavor can stand out. Their firm bite holds up in both cold and cooked applications, making them a versatile pantry staple.
