Every Thursday I do our shopping at the Byron Bay Farmers Markets, and there’s one thing that I must ALWAYS buy - Tuscan Dried Olives from Grumpy Grandmas Farm in Byron Bay.
The farm is owned by husband-and-wife duo, Tim and Lynn, who in my opinion, create the greatest olives in the world.
Their Tuscan variety are pitted and then dried for a full 20 hours, then tossed with oregano, rosemary and thyme. After that they’re rested for another 24 hours to let the flavours develop even further.
Whenever I bump into someone else buying these at the stall, it feels like we’re part of a secret elite food club. We share a quiet nod that says “Ah, you get it too”
