[Sca-cooks] Olives

[Stefan li Rous]

Plachoya responded to the questions about olives with:

<<< Olives can be green or black when they are ripe. Depends on the  
verity. They still have to be "processed" in order to be edible, they  
are bitter till then. You can process them at home with a salt pack or  
salt water bath.>>>

Thanks. Have you done this olive curing? I'd like to find out more  
about this salt pack or salt water bath curing process. This is the  
most info I've gotten so far when I've asked about how to process  
olives. Of course I'm not sure where I could buy raw olives.
