Enjoy California Ripe Olives just as they are for a quick snack. Their mild flavor and buttery texture compliments a wide range of recipes, for all meal occasions. To eat them, simply drain off the brine and they're good to go. Store leftovers in the fridge in their original brine or in a solution of 1 cup of water to 1/2 tsp salt in a container loosely covered with food wrap. We recommend eating the properly stored contents within 10 days.
