Anchovy-stuffed olives

Food and drink · Alcoi/Alcoy, L'Alcoià, Alicante

Alcoi is the cradle of the anchovy-stuffed olive. Here were born brands such as Serpis and La Española, which at the beginning of the twentieth century industrialised a filling until then done by hand and turned it into an export preserve in tin and in glass.
