Cured Olives We try to encourage people to cure their olives without using lye which used by the commercial olive canning industry to leach out the bitter flavors in the olives and to soften them. Lye is a toxic chemical that is used in many industrial applications and is the primary ingredient in most pour-in drain cleaners. It’s a caustic substance that destroys nutrients and can cause severe burns if it comes in contact with skin. Olives have been around for millennia as a staple food source in Mediterranean climates. Some trees in the Middle East are literally thousands of years old. There are plenty of time-tested methods to cure without lye; they’ve just become somewhat overlooked in our modern fast food society.

For dry salt curing we recommend Mission Olives which we’ll have later in the season around November.
