Description
I love pickling olives myself! This recipe is a tribute to traditional Italian cuisine. The preparation requires some time and patience, but the result is incomparable: aromatic, slightly bitter olives, perfect as an antipasto or snack. I prefer to use organic olives to ensure they are free of pesticides. The addition of fennel seeds, bay leaf and chili gives the olives a special touch. Ideal for those who love the authentic taste of Italy and like to create their own supplies. A great project for the fall, when the olives are ripe!

Prepare olives
Remove the stems from the olives and sort the olives by size to ensure even pickling. No Thermomix setting required.
Water the olives
Place the olives in the mixing bowl and cover with water. Place an object on the olives to ensure they are completely submerged. Change the water daily. No Thermomix setting required.
Prepare first brine
For the first brine, add 100 g salt per liter of water to the mixing bowl and cook for 5 min./100°C/speed 2. Then let the brine cool.
Pickle olives (first brine)

Prepare second brine
For the second brine, add 120 g salt per liter of water to the mixing bowl and cook for 5 min./100°C/speed 2. Then let the brine cool.
