Ingredients
- 6 oz olives
Instructions
- Remove the olives from the jar with a fork and set onto a paper towel. Leave as much of the oil in the jar as possible.
- Once the olives have drained for a few minutes. Place the olives in a bowl in a single layer and cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap.
- If you aren't already outside, take the bowl of olives outside. Place the hose of the smoker into the plastic wrap and make the plastic wrap as tight as possible around the exhaust tupbe. Place a layer of smoking dust into the bowl of your Breville cold smoker and light with a lighter while adjusting the exhaust for the smoker. Once the bowl is filled with smoke, you can continue smoking until the smoker bowl is exhausted OR stop the smoker and close up the hole where the tube enters the plastic wrap. Allow the smoke to engulf the olives and when the smoke dissipates, light the smoker again and fill with smoke again.
- Repeat this process tasting the olives intermittently. When the olives are as smoky as you prefer, place the olives back into the olive jar. Label your jar as "smoked olives" with the date. Place in the fridge and use when ready.
Notes
- You'll want to use a glass or stainless steel bowl for smoking your olives so that you can lay them in a single layer to apply the smoke.
- The glass or stainless container will work best because plastic bowls often want to absorb the smoke flavor.
- Perform cold smoking outside or you will fill your house with smoke and the smell lingers for a long time.
- Purchase the wood saw dust particles for smoking foods. It's dried correctly and there isn't a bunch of trash in the product. It's worth the purchase.
- You do not have to purchase a smoking bell for your cold smoking. Simply use a bowl and some plastic wrap, it works just as well.
- This smoker works on batteries and they last a long time, but keep some extra ones on hand. You don't want to run out mid-smoke.
- Make sure the plastic wrap is around the exhaust tube as tightly as possible.
- When you turn the smoker on, it will want to blow the plastic off of the bowl. You can reinforce the plastic by placing a rubber band around the plastic at the rim of the bowl.
