Firm, squeaky and remarkably resilient under heat, it has become something of a modern British favourite, its ability to char beautifully on the outside while staying soft within making it a genuine crowd pleaser at barbecues and dinner tables alike.

Its deeply furrowed shell, cracked open to reveal a kernel folded in on itself like a small wrinkled brain, gives it an almost sculptural quality, and its flavour matches that presence, rich, earthy and faintly bitter in a way that has made it a favourite of serious cooks for centuries.

Bright, glossy and unmistakably sweet, it arrives each year alongside Wimbledon, cream teas and long afternoons spent outdoors, its appearance so tightly woven into the season that it has become something close to a national ritual.

Synonymous with sun soaked terraces, long lunches and the kind of effortless Mediterranean cooking that has captivated cooks the world over, the olive carries with it a sense of place that few other foods can match.
