I would like to link to here in the next instllment of my olive adventure on nonrecipe.com. I pitted my olives instead of cracking or slitting them and they are ready to go in a brine as soon as I buy more salt. Do I really need to put in all the seasonigs? I would like more mild olives, just olivy and salty, not spicy. When you put them in a "cool dry place" do you have the lid on tight, loose, or not at all? With that amount of salt and vinegar, you don't need to sterilize the jars, right? Great post. I would like to link to here in the next instllment of my olive adventure on nonrecipe.com.
