Olive Oil & the Serbian Church

97 year-old Bob Porovich was our docent at the Serbian Orthodox Church. During WWII he worked as an engineer in the Pacific building airstrips for McArthur. When I asked a question about the church's religious icons he replied "enough about that, now more about me." Bob is an original and the very best person to give the history of the church.

Olive oil tasting in Copperopolis. Unlike wine, olive oil does not improve with age. Buy California extra virgin olive oil to get the freshest.



Ed Rich explains the differences in taste by variety of olive as well as his recipe for lemon olive oil - 3 tons of olives to 1 ton of meyer lemons.
