About the dish

Stuffed olives were among the small, elaborate "arrangements" that decorated cold buffets and intermediate courses in bourgeois kitchens. Erken gives several variants of butter filling: salmon butter, paprika butter and caviar butter, as well as purées.

How to make it

  1. 1

    Remove the pits

    Remove the pits from the olives, either by cutting the flesh away in a spiral or with the help of a corer.

  2. 2

    Make the salmon butter

    Mash 60 g of dairy butter and 60 g of scraped smoked salmon finely together and rub the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve.

  3. 3

    Fill the olives

    Fill the salmon butter into the olives with a piping bag or a paper cone.

  4. 4

    Chill and serve

    First set the olives in the cold so the filling sets, then let them stand at a medium-warm temperature (room temperature) before serving.

  5. 5

    Variants

    Paprika butter: 60 g dairy butter is stirred with 1/2 tsp paprika, moistened with a couple of drops of wine or stock. Caviar butter: 60 g dried caviar is mashed or rubbed, stirred with 1 tbsp heavy cream and 30 g stirred butter, rubbed through a sieve and finished with 1 tbsp stiffly whipped cream. The olives can also be filled with chicken purée or game purée.

Changes from the original

The amount of olives is estimated, "hair sieve" has become a fine-mesh sieve, and the fillings are described in modern words. "Medium-warm temperature" is interpreted as room temperature at serving.
