Great video and information 💜
Hi Ken, I live in Cape Town South Africa, we have loads of olives from our garden.
Your video is very helpful. Can I jar olives without vinegar? Will it last for a year?
Thanking you in advance.
Warm regards
Bernardete
I Like kalamata
Greetings from 🇹🇷
Any recipe of not marinading them in vinegar, but lacto-fermenting them? I mean, 1) brining to get the bitterness out 2) fermenting ? Mane, I love Greece, i have been to Nikiti (Νικήτη) and Crete.
Hey, where can you buy good quality kalamata olives in the Toronto area?
Ken, you didn’t mention if you cut a slit in the olives before putting them in the brine. Please advise.
Or, is there no need to put a slit because you are leaving them in for 4-6 weeks. No switching out the water either?
Pros and cons growing this tree? Do you need to fertilize and water often?
I don’t like black olives
I love greek kalamata olive,eat 5 of them in the morning ,thank you from israel
Bruh you should store your olives in glass jars. How dare you mix those beautiful organic olives with shiticide plastic made from petroleum. Your olives will absorb toxins from plastics especially when you use cheap plastic bottles.
yasou Ken…i just received olive and oil from my place overseas but they didnt season the olives with the lemon and spices…do you know the spices and things required to do this? im from the same area as you so im sure the seqasoning in Kalamata are all similar, thanks man
👍
Good sir info
I'm from Algeria. I love your style, bravo
Super video, our Kalamata olive trees (in Heraklion, Crete) are three years old & we'll be harvesting the olives for the first time. I didn't know this process was so simple. Thank you.
They are red, and they are not the most popular. Black olives and green olives are more popular than kalamata. Kalamata do taste the best.
“Shiticides” 😂
Can olive trees be grown indoors in eastern Ontario?
Ahhhh don't use plastic!! They are endocrine disrupters 😭
I'm an oddball because I love kalamatas but I hate a regalur green or black olives. Kalamata is where the flavor is 😎 I loved this video mate!
