These manzanilla olives are green, with a firm and meaty texture and are slightly spicy with a lightly bitter, briny flavour. Manzanilla are the most popular table olive in Spain. Marinaded with guindilla chillies to add spiciness.
The recipe in the jar differs from that in the tin - the tinned olives are slightly more savoury whereas the jarred Manzanilla have a crisp flavour and a little extra spiciness.
