To preserve you olives:
(Recipy from the bronze age!)
a) Collect before fully ripe.
b) Remove the bitterness
Leave them in eater that you change every 12 hours with water that contains wood ash and then again clear water. I tmight take a week.
To decrease the time it is a good idea to cut the olives with knife.
c) ash well and put them in salty water. Τhe oil coming from them will aid prservation. Idealy a combination of wine vinegar and salytwater is used.
Cannoisiers use vinegar, saltywater and oliveoil.
Kind regards
