I guess the profession chef that went to Peter Kumps
school does no know anything about starting with good products or have the desire to learn about food. Gee what a good chef, I’ll have to avoid that resturant and go to mcdonalds where there chef has no interest either.

[...] in the fall either, when the fruit matures. Maybe someday I’ll try and cure some of them, use Rose’s recipe. Perhaps when I’m done with the Ph.D. and we’ve got kids that can help me gather them [...]

I live in utah. Growing up, my grandparents cured their own olives. I happend to come across an old crock made by the Western Pottery Co. in Denver a 6 gallon one. Fortunately, my aunt and father are still alive and know the old recipe my grandparents brought with them from Italy. My question is, how do I go about getting some raw green olives, and will a olive tree grow in Utah? I would really like to purchase some olives so I can cure them like my grandparents used to. It would be greatly appreciated if you could pass on some information on how to obtain them. Thank you, Joseph

Sooooo,,,,how did your olives turn out. I am quite pleased with mine and they passed the BIG test when Aref said he really liked them. I finally bought some pre-skinned garlic cloves; brined them for a few weeks and have been adding them to the olives as space permits…we gotta get serious about all this next year. Aref’s Brother and Sister were here from Lebanon and they were chased several times because they would harvest any olives they saw growing on the streets. The concept of leaving them to rot on the tree just isn’t an option in their home-town of Soufar.
