The family company “Perle de Provence” (translated as the pearl of Provence, referring to the olive) is situated within the appellation AOC “huile d’olive d’aix en Provence”, that means the whole process from the olive grove to the pressing is contained in a delimited area around Aix en Provence and use local olive varieties. They are manually harvested and the oil is obtained solely by mechanical press that preserves all the nutritional qualities.

Organic EV Olive OilOrganic Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Perle de Provence

The fruity taste and the bright green colour of the oil are achieved by using the Aglandau and Salonenque olives varieties, native to Provence, which provide almond, apple, artichoke and pepper flavours to the oil. Olive oil is naturally stable at high temperatures so use it in salads, steamed vegetables, oven-baked fish and pasta. For a quick, healthy and delicious recipe: slice one lemon, two well-ripened tomatoes, put two fillets of white fish in an oven-dish, add the lemon, tomatoes, salt, pepper and thyme. Leave in the oven, covered with foil, for about 20 minutes (depending on the size of the fillets) and serve the dish directly on the table.

Posted in Our Products on by Catherine – No Comments

“La Marlière” is the name of the area where farm manager Hélène started up her organic production. Today she grows around thirty aromatic and medicinal herbs, and many fruits such as apples, plums, quince, strawberries and blackcurrants. When asked why she chose organic farming, she answers that it is to produce food using methods that respect the environment, and to show the world that organic and gourmet are two words that are not mutually exclusive.

Organic MustardsOrganic Mustard with Blackcurrant & Mustard with Figs & Fine Herbs

The mustard seeds used in these products are lightly crushed to split the husks, then marinated with brandy vinegar, water and salt for several hours. They are then mixed with spices before being ground. Today most mustard seeds are not grown in France any more but mustard millers are still located in Beaune near Dijon. Hélène is not a mustard maker and would rather calls herself a mustard “improver”. She adds aromatic herbs or fruits, giving an innovative touch to the classic Dijon mustard.

You can try these mustards with both cold and hot meat. Or try making your own vinaigrette dressing: Simply add a tablespoon of mustard, two tablespoons of vinegar, a pinch of salt and pepper, mix with a spoon and then add 4 tablespoons of vegetable oil and mix again, it’s ready to serve!
