It has been a while since I followed up on my olive curing experiments. This year I picked later than usual because....life. It turned out that this was a good thing! I thought I waited too long but no, the olives were even riper and not degrading on the tree as I thought they might have.
This was the best batch of salt cured olive so far. They are absolutely delicious! Here is a link to my blog My Sunny Kitchen which has a detailed recipe with pictures.
