Olive Oil
Until recently fine Organic Olive oils produced in the Le Marche region of Italy were virtually unknown outside of Italy and in fact most were unknown outside of Le Marche itself. But hopefully over the next few years this situation will slowly change as these oils are made known to a wider public.
There are many types of Olives grown throughout the world and in our region of southern Le Marche the Sargano olive is widely planted. The olives are harvested when they turn purple and the Sargano olive is widely blended with oils from other olives such as Leccino, Moraiolo and Frantoio. The Leccino and the Frantoio olive varieties are the base of nearly all the oils produced in Le Marche and these are often combined with other less well known varieties. In other areas of Le Marche we find Carboncella in the Ascoli Zone, Raggia and Rosciola in the province of Ancona and also varieties such as Pendolino, Moraiolo and Maurino.
In the Le Marche Olive oils one finds that a typically light and sweet taste prevails. The oils are fruity and slightly spicy but the taste and aroma is pleasantly balanced. As Le Marche becomes more and more popular for holidays and for second homes, I am sure the Olive oils from this region will increasingly gain in popularity both in Italy, the UK and hopefully in the US where Livinginlemarche.com hopes to start importing them in late 2009.
The Olive oils we will be highlighting are all high quality Extra Virgin Olive Oils and all are produced organically and a one bio dynamically. Olives are grown all over the Le Marche region in both small and large Olive groves, and most are grown by small producers who normally only distribute their produce in their local area. Some of these small producers are now managing to export small quantities to other parts of the European mainland and to the UK. We at livinginlemarche.com will be importing small quantities of high quality organic olive oils from three producers in late 2008 and early 2009 after this years olive harvest in November.
Le Marche is blessed with many fine small Olive Oil producers and Livinginlemarche.com believe we have chosen the best small producers in southern Le Marche to supply our Organic Olive Oils. All of the groves are situated in the Ascoli Piceno province in the south of Le Marche and are all within 25kms of the Adriatic coast. We are passionate about Organic Extra virgin olive oils from Le Marche and also in helping the small organic producers reach a larger market outside their region. Several small producers have also approached me from other parts of Le Marche and another from central Umbria, where he produces a really fine Organic oil. I hope in time Livinginlemarche.com can also help these small producers find sales outlets into the wider world and also teach a wider public more about fine Olive oils and their production and history.
Another exciting development are the holidays we can now offer at a few of the Olive Oil producers Agriturismi in southern Le Marche and further details will soon be available about the 2009 season on our website at Livinginlemarche.com.

The Flavors of Olive Oil $22.48 Walk along the aisles of almost any grocery store in America and you’ll be overwhelmed by the shelves of olive oil: bottles from France, Greece, Italy, and Spain; cold-pressed oil; hand-pressed oil. How do you know which oil is best? Which one should you choose for salads? For sautéing? For dipping?In The Flavors of Olive Oil, Deborah Krasner demystifies the world of olive oil. Olives-just like wine grapes-respond directly to variations in climate, soil, cultivation, and harvest, so each oil is unique. By classifying olive oil in four distinct groups (delicate and mild, fruity and fragrant, olivey and peppery, and leafy-green and grassy), Krasner guides readers through the different characteristics of more than 150 different olive oils, providing a step-by-step tasting guide to the flavors and aromas of each one. With notes on oils from Italy to Morocco to California, Krasner transports the reader to olive-oil-producing regions around the world. As all good cooks know, olive oil is an essential ingredient in preparing great food. In this comprehensive volume, Krasner incorporates olive oil into more than 100 delicious, mouthwatering recipes. With everything from appetizers and small dishes to breads and desserts, Krasner showcases each type of oil and combines complementary flavors. Leafy-green and grassy oils stand out when combined with shellfish in Seared Scallops on Chickpea Crêpes. The fruity oils sing when combined with pasta in Penne with Pesto from Naples. The peppery oils retain their boldness in the recipe for Seared Sirloin Steak on a Bed of Watercress, and they add complexity to mashed potatoes in Olive Oil and Rosemary Mashed Potatoes. Demonstrating that olive oil isn’t just for use in savory dishes, Krasner offers recipes like Gingered Carrot Cake with Figs, "Hot" Chocolate Cake, Orange Chocolate Chip Biscotti, and Apple-Cherry Cardamom Strudel. These recipes, and many more, will showcase the delicate olive oils in your pantry and leave your guests clamoring for the recipes.Hints on technique, pantry basics, and equipment are also included. No book on olive oil would be complete without noting the important health benefits offered by olive oil, and Krasner points to significant evidence that using olive oil is essential to a healthful diet.The Flavors of Olive Oil is an indispensable guide to the joys of olive oil and a font of information you’ll turn to again and again. |

The World Market for Olive Oil $325 This report was created for strategic planners, international executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for olive oil. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics that appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for olive oil for those countries serving the world market via exports or supplying from various countries via imports. I do so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models. |
