The most likely theory how ancient peoples learned how to make olives edible was by accident of nature! Wild olive trees grew along the sea shore of the Aegean sea of Greece. Ripe olives fell off trees into tidepools and floated for a time (the ocean in that part of the world is very calm) and an ancient Greek who has been lost to time decided to taste one of these natural brined wild olives and they had a "Eureka" moment! The rest is history. In Santa Barbara, California there is an olive company that brines olives naturally in sea water. The olives are packed into box cages and floated off shore to brine naturally. I read about this in a magazine.

Here, Greece, all neighbors know me. But better than them they know me their trees. There are so many olive trees around so you can choose any kind of olives you like. This year I made 18 kg of the famous type "Kalamon". I like a bit bitter. But usually I use 11% salt and 4% vinegar. In ratio to water. Then I preserve them in jars with virgin olive oil. I add fresh origano and thyme from my yard. They last more than 2 years. Maybe longer but I never had the opportunity to save them. I learned a lot from this channel. Now a new method to make olives.

Nice video. Will certainly try your recipe next season. Thanks. Personally I prepare Kalamata black olives by salting them high (about 200g coarse salt + 100g fine salt per kg olive) and keep them in a fabric bag in a strainer under HEAVY pressure for approx. 2 weeks (yes, I mean HEAVY pressure), stirring the bag every 2 or 3 days to redistribute the salt. Result is MARVELOUS! Very little tasty and inspiring bitterness, moderate to low salt (after rinsing with fresh water before serving), very little moisture content, and full strength of black olive's great, original aroma and oil content.

Great process. The problem is waiting for fresh olives to be available here in Australia. A lot of people plant olive trees in pots as ornamental plants these days but most of our olive trees are in south central Australia (South Australia) which has a Mediterranean climate where a lot of our wine also comes from. I love the idea of using olives as fruit for salads. I buy olives in brine and soak them so they don't have so much salt to use to serve as antipasto or in salads. I don't have a strong taste for salt and use lots of herbs and fruit and vegetables for intense flavours 👩🏻🌾🤷🏻♀️😊

Thank you for a change. A new sub to your 436K! For years I rinse olives daily for 15-20 days (doing now autumn in Australia), then a brine/red wine vinegar recipe. Your salting process looks like they retain deep colours and possibly flavours? After 20 days of rinsing, they pale in colour, but taste great, but the red wine vinegar, chile/garlic are probably responsible for that.

Thanks for the tutorial I had to leave my olive’s for a few days as I was away visiting family. The water has foamed a bit on top and some of the olives slightly brown. Would these still be ok to salt?
@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato5 ай бұрын
Are the olives soft or still hard?
@rattedbug50035 ай бұрын
They are still firm the black ones slightly softer. The brown stain goes through the flesh. I’ve continued soaking rinsing them daily.

Do you not slash the olives with a knife to remove the tannins faster? I had to soak mine for over a month to remove bitterness. I used the salt recipe you mention. But I actually slashed the olives (from another video) and they are now too salty. Any advice to remove the saltiness? I didn’t realize that you did not slash the olives first before soaking. 😭 I’m now soaking the olives in water hoping to remove some salt.

Yes 👍🏼 soaking in water is the right thing to do Taste 1 olive every day to check when they are ready

Ciao Giovanni, would this be better called Salt Curing rather than Brine Curing? What are differences in product flavor/texture/speed between Salt or Brine technique?
@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato Жыл бұрын
Similar taste but different technique. Sometimes in the water they become soft if you keep them long time

I've just placed them with salt... I didn't hear you say whether to rinse them after the 14 days with salt or keep the salt? I don't have many just 1/2 kilo from a small tree in a big clay pot..... so I won't store them.... should I add the spices now while they are in the salt? or after the 14 days in the salt? thank you!!
