Let us tell you about our favorite sneaky shortcut.
Like finding just a dribble of milk left in the carton, discovering one lonely olive left in the jar can be devastating. But there’s a silver lining to this otherwise sad situation. Even after you eat the last olive, an unexpected star remains: olive brine. And I’m asking you—begging you!—not to throw it out.
Olive brine is the liquid olives are packaged in, essentially salt water that’s been infused with the deep, alluring flavor of olives. And while it’s basically a by-product, I’ve found it to be an incredibly versatile condiment of sorts, a splash of which can lend a welcome pop of salt and umami wherever it is needed. While it sounds humble, olive brine is a secret ingredient that stretches my dollar, reduces waste in my kitchen, and adds depth to my vegetarian meals.
I’ve found that it’s particularly well-suited to food inspired by cuisines that make good use of the olive: Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and southern European. A good entry-level use of olive brine is adding a few tablespoons to your store-bought marinara sauce, which takes a humdrum meal of noodles and red sauce to an utterly satisfying place—a hack if there ever was one. But the options are pretty much endless.
, and I haven’t looked back. Once I realized olive brine was a sneaky shortcut to acidity and depth, I started using it creatively and spontaneously, adding it to whatever needed some oomph—and I hope you will too. I, for one, have no regrets.
