Bringing to the table unique dishes, which are also very tasty, is not always easy.
Today I propose a half pacchero with salmon and the fine olives taggiasche.
Features:
Oliva taggiasca is a typical product of Liguria and in particular of the Province of Imperia.
Taggiasca olive is small, very fleshy, dark and wrinkled, with unmistakable characteristics of taste and delicacy, is a rare and precious variety: from one hectare of olive grove in fact are obtained about twenty quintals of these olives compared to sixty-100 tons of other qualities.
historical notes:
The origins are pre-Roman and date back to the techniques introduced by the Greeks of Marseilles from 590 BC. C. which consisted in the grafting of domestic olive trees on wild wild olive trees of the Mediterranean maquis. It is so called because it arrived in Taggia, brought here by the monks of San Colombano, coming from the monastery island of Lerino.
notes:
Taggiasche olives in brine have a fruity taste, strong-sweet and sometimes spicy: they are excellent to serve as an aperitif, essential to decorate the classic tomato and mozzarella and in the traditional rabbit Ligurian.
