A couple of times I've been to restaurants that serve olives that taste
quite sweet, and not very salty. I suspect they might use vinegar
instead of brine, which most olives seem to be soaked in. I've looked
around in vain to find these olives in shops. Any idea what makes
olives sweet but not salty? If so, what is the "style" called, and
where might I find them to buy?

Wayne Boatwright o¿oLook for olives whose marinade includes red wine. My local market has an
olive bar with at least 3 kinds like that. -

Hello Wayne!!! Once upon a time I have bought a package of olives but they
were very very salty. What have I done?
I put them for a night in a pot of water. They became soooo sweety 🙂))
