As promised, here is my update on curing my mission olives. I have about 17 pounds to cure and started the process today. I'm washing and then drying the olives and packing the 17 pounds in about 25 pounds of sea salt. I'm using glass Fido jars and layering the olives and salt. The tops will remain open to allow for air circulation. The salt is supposed to pull the oil out of the olives which I will pour out of the jars. Well see! Hopefully this works!
Hummm...wonder if you can save the oil and use it. You may need to clean it first, but I'll bet you can use it.
