at my house .....

Today is day 5 of my table olive production!  Nothing too exciting, but for the next few days I am still changing the water twice a day with the addition of adding salt to the water.  How much you ask?  When I asked my mother-in-law for a specific measurement, her reply was a typical "oh you know, a punch! What a classic - no written measurements, just a basic process handed down from generation to generation!

The olives are looking a little bruised and battered at the moment, but I am assured that they are fine!

  1. Wow, such a process. Hope it all turns out well. At least with the lack of specifics you will know you have a unique product.

    Thanks for joining in today. Lou.

  2. I am looking forward to seeing how it turns out - I have always been a little nervous when it comes to olives. how wonderful to be handed down a generational recipe!
