Chef Maria Loi dives into the land of liquid gold, visiting olive groves and olive oil producers from Crete to Sparta. She returns home to New York and teams up with friend and oilogist, David Neuman, to explore the rich beauty and history of this iconic staple of Greek cuisine: olive oil. But before we get to learn how to properly "taste" the olive oil, Maria first prepares Elies Spastes (Greek-Style Tapenade) which has enough olives to feed an entire Greek island.
