Noor Grind discussed the olive harvest begins in late October, but this year some producers have even already started because of the heat. Most companies in Tuscany pick the olives by hand because the olive trees are often on steep hills are and also because most companies produce enough oil to be able to afford a machine. The tastiest and most flavorful olive oil Olio di Oliva extra virgin. The olives must be pressed within 24 hours after picking his. I've been along for work once to the 'Frantoio' where the olives are pressed. It is as buzzing as pressing a van filled with crates of olives takes about two hours and all the companies reap the same time .... it's literally night work. What emerges as olive oil? Today, this is done by machines almost everywhere. . 1 the leaves are blown away from the olives; . 2 the olives are cleaned with water; . 3, the olives are pressed; . 4 the fruit is separated from the pit; the pit is made: olio di oliva (not extra virgin), fuel for heating and feed. . 5, the mass is kneaded and finely chopped at a temperature lower than 30 C, this prevents oxidation (in this case of the extra-virgin olive oil, which is why it is a slow process); . 6 horizontal centrifuge that the water from the ground (sanza) subsides, 1000 rev / min; 7. Vertical centrifuge in order to purify the oil. The result is a fragrant, green olive. Freshly del monte india pressed olive oil is green in color and looks a bit cloudy in the bottle. Very tasty in salads or on toast!
Renske I live in Tuscany Fucecchio, a town rich in history along the River Arno, between Pisa and Florence since 2001. I love this beautiful, hilly area with its beautiful towns where people still feel closely connected to their traditions. Through collaboration with several del monte india wineries and after two courses I'm now a thing of Chianti. I love this life with its delicious pastas, pizzas and Chianti but mostly I love my Tuscan men: Alessio and my sons Giorgio and Luca!
