2Olives are extremely common ingredients in salads. I don't know why you are having issues. – Catija Sep 30 '16 at 09:39

1@Catija mightn't the OP be asking how to cure fresh olives? – Giorgio Oct 01 '16 at 00:14

@Dorothy the question is very confusing but, considering the comment on the answer, no, that doesn't seem to be the case. – Catija Oct 01 '16 at 00:56

Generally, any salty/pickled ingredient becomes part of the overall salt (and acid) balance of a salad - since olives are salty but not INEDIBLY salty, you can decide to taste how much you want to include, and how fine you want to cut them - you could do everything between including them whole (maybe pitted) and cutting/grinding them to a mince, brunoise, or paste - or a combination of such. The trick is to reduce the salt (and maybe acid) you add to other parts of the salad.
