History and traditions of Caiazzo baked olives: exploring the local culinary heritage
Caiazzane infornate olives are a typical local dish from Caiazzo, a small municipality in Campania. This delicacy has been handed down from generation to generation and is a real treasure of the local culinary heritage. According to tradition, the olives are harvested when they are still green and then left to soak in water for several weeks to remove the bitterness typical of the variety. They are then baked in large terracotta pans together with Mediterranean flavourings such as garlic, chilli pepper and rosemary.
