There are several ways you can make olive brine - most of them require more time, but the end result is worth it.

Brine for olives I type

Necessary products: olives, salt, water, egg

Method of preparation:

There is no ratio of this marinade. To find out if you did it right, we will use the old egg method. Put water in a bowl and add salt gradually, the salt should melt completely. Then, to check if the salt is enough for the marinade, you need to put the raw and well-washed egg in the bowl - if it floats, then you have hit the proportions, if it remains at the bottom, remove the egg, add more salt and stir until dissolved.

Remove the tails of the olives and put them in a bowl and fill them with the already prepared salt and water marinade. After two weeks, discard the marinade, rinse the olives well and pour salt and water over them again. Leave them for about 20-22 days, then do the procedure again and this time let them stand for a month in the marinade (30-31 days). After this period the bitterness will be gone and you will enjoy delicious olives. To keep the olives longer, after removing them from the marinade, put them in a compote jar and pour oil or olive oil.
