I have an olive tree in my yard that drops a ton of those oily fuckers all over the deck every fall. Last October I decided to finally try curing a jar of them, 40 or 50 small green olives (no idea what kind). I put them in some brine, you’re supposed to change the brine once a month. I ate one a few weeks ago. They’re still hard and bitter but they taste and smell like they are on their way to becoming proper olives. I think I’ll let them keep mellowing until the new crop is ready to pick, so approximately one year. If the ones in my jar turn out to be tasty I’m going to do a lot more next time.

My only question is what took you so long to start

Slam Pajamas posted:Olive oil was used to light lamps back in ye olde bronze age, has anybody tried lighting them on fire now? Perhaps as some kind of flaming drink gimmick, it's worth a shot Often they are too wet, but if you need an emergency flaming torch, a Cheeto will burn for a surprisingly long time

Smugworth posted:My only question is what took you so long to start Because I’m a literal dumbass and it didn’t occur to me I could do that. I assumed olives was a complex process, not “put these in salt water” Also the tree seemed like it was dying when I first moved here 12 years ago. It was a tangle of dead branches. I started cutting the dead stuff off little by little and it stared getting new growth. I think it’s a healthy tree now and I get the reap the olives.🫒

There is a place to buy fancy olives like 45 minutes south of me I think it's basically the entire reason that the city of Corning exists because holy poo poo, you wanna see some depressing rear end sights you drive through the city of Corning and wonder how anyone could loving live there

Dry cured olives are better than brined IMO The best olives I ever had were made buy some guy I used to work with that just had a tree in his backyard and cured them in salt every season

I love olives. I keep looking for tapenade at stores but I can never find any. I guess maybe I'll make some since it doesn't seem too complicated
