Olives must be processed to remove the bitter glucoside oleuropein, before... (سوق العطارين) Olives must be processed to remove the bitter glucoside oleuropein, before they are edible, so they are usually first treated with lye and then pickled. The largest type of olive is called a 'donkey olive'. The smallest is known as a 'bullet'. People around the world consume 2.25 million liters of olive oil each year !! #olives #tripoli #lebanon #fresholives #rosemary #chilly #foodlover #kitchen #foodlove #foodlovesme #foodporn #food #ilovefood #foodismylife #chefs #foodsisterhood #healthyfood #instafood #yummy #delicious #foodismylife #Foodie #hot #foodblogger #chef #foodism #foodpicsbruh #instagood
