Default Unlikely addition -- my turn...

Black olives... amazing!

I've always used olive oil, but didn't like olives... didn't seem to
make much sense, so I tried them again... Now I think they're pretty
good eats... I still have trouble eating green olives, though; I know
there are many varieties out there... Can any one suggest a milder
type of green olive I might try?

They are so deadly salty, that is what is so hard to take about them.

Black olives are also salty, but not as much. I do not bother with
green olives any more.

I'll buy a jar of green olives, then dump the brine out and fill with
purified water (bottled water). Let that sit for 24 hours, dump it and
refill it with water a second time.

They come out very well this way. I like green olives if I desalinate
them!

It works.

Quick , someone on SUKUMWiT st Bangkok Thailand
, several blocks E of NaNaNeua st ,

FOODLAND , N of Suk street , 1 block E of NaNaNuea st




buy some Olives packed up by a French company .
brand ? Tremond ?

They are not salty , nor vinegar , like nothing i've ever tasted
before
and i haven't learned the secret .

Why can't these secrets free up ?

I hate vinegar , in everything , even pickles , so i stopped eating
pickles , even in Vlasic ...


There is NO vinegar in those Olives .

Ill keep experimenting til i find the recipe ...

I put black olives in everything. I love green too and have low BP so
the salt isn't a problem. I like the big fat Queen olives stuffed with
jalapeno!

Do you find that they don't keep as long in the refrigerator once
they've been "desalinated"? (Perhaps they never sit around long enough
for you to find out.)
