How do you store opened black olives?

- After opening a can or jar of black olives, rinse them thoroughly under cold water to remove excess brine.

- Place the olives in an airtight container and cover with a small amount of olive oil or brine to prevent them from drying out.

- Store the container in the refrigerator and consume the olives within 1-2 weeks.

Freezing:

- If you want to store the olives for a longer period, you can freeze them.

- Rinse the olives and drain them well.

- Place the olives in a freezer bag and seal tightly, removing as much air as possible.

- Freeze the olives for up to 6 months.

- To use the frozen olives, thaw them overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for several hours.
