What colors match with olive green?
Olive green is a tricky color because there are so many shades of Olive green, from light olive to loden. If the olive you are trying to use is a dark olive, treat it as a brown. Usually any colors that go with brown will also go with a dark olive. The lighter olives present more of a problem but you can get around this by realizing that olive green is a mixture of yellow and black. Black is a good accent for a light olive, you can also get away with some shades of navy. Yellow is also a good color selection. On a dark olive, red makes a good accent color. Your best bet is to hold the color you're thinking of using next to the olive, to see how they react to each other.
What is the difference between a green pepper and black pepper?
Olives grow on olive trees in Spain, Italy, Greece, and the US. The black (ripe) olives have a stronger, more pungent taste than green olives. The reason that we don't taste the bitterness of the black olives (when we buy them in a can) is because most of the oil and flavor is taken out, when marinated in water with a slight bit of vinegar and just a very small amount of salt. The green olives that we buy in the jar are marinated in water with a bit of vinegar and lots of brine salt, and often stuffed with pimentos. The brine salt and vinegar kills the bitterness of the olives; this is why in the US when you taste green or black olives , you usually can't taste the original authentic flavor. Another difference is the curing. Olives are cured in brine (salt and water). A green olive is picked early so it remains green after curing. A black olive stays on the tree longer and is black. It is black when cured, too.
