At last my brine cured olives, after soaking for 6 months, are done. Now into big jars with herbs and little red wine vinegar to marinate. More coming up in my next newsletter. #homemadeolives #olives

My take on #balelasalad with #homemadeolives and greens from the garden: #arugula #parsley #mint #dill #holybasil #oregano

Martinis await! Picked a crop of olives at a friend's house. First step, soaking in cold water. It's a long process to home cure olives, but also very easy. #homemadeolives
