Olives

Make a slit down one side of each olive. Best to harvest when they change from green to purple.

Soak the olives in rain water for a couple of weeks, renewing the water each day. This allows the bitterness to leach out.

Bottle the olives in brine. Allow to rest for some weeks, then consume.
