Wow, finally!!
Great to hear your olives harvest are still above average right now. Quite interested in your preservation methods as I am just familiar with olive oils, but we only use it during birthdays with the charcuterie board or in my soap recipe.
I read somewhere that grapes and olives don't taste the same even if of the same variety. Haven't tried raw/preserved olives yet and I'm curious, how does it taste?
A fresh olive right off the tree is very bitter.
you can make oil out of it or process it so it can be consumed.
