Hi! A neighbor bought the wrong kind of olives, green instead of black. They hate the green ones, so they let me have the jar. They're just store-brand typical pimento-stuffed brined olives.
I am desalinating them right now, and was wondering about a pickling fluid I could cook up to pickle them in. Here's what I was thinking:
Olive Oil, white vinegar, water, garlic, black pepper, 1 small jalapeno, and a pinch of sugar. Pack the solids in a mason jar, boil the fluids and backfill with them. Let sit for a few days and sample.
Your thoughts?
