An extensive share of the table-olive market is maintained by olives in brine. The fruits are selected by expert hands, packed in plastic tubs, bags or buckets and preserved adding water and salt. Packaging sizes range from 100g (3,5 oz) to 12Kg (26,4 lb) in many combinations.
Brining is a crucial procedure in order -to process and preserve table olives. Depending on the result we are looking for there are a few things to take into account:
DEBITTERING or
SWEETENING of (unripe) table olives: the olives are soaked in a solution of water and washing Soda (NaOH/KOH) in proportions varying between 1.5% and 3% between 8 and 12 hours.
When the Debittering treatment is over the fruits are rinsed from 3 to 4 times with fresh water. The olives are then kept in brine with salt concentration varying between 7% and 9%.
CONSERVATION of (ripe) black olives: A method used, by the way, to process the popular
Gaeta Olives, following the ancient and traditional process called
“Natural”, olives are seasoned for at least 8 months in water and salt.
