Method:
1.) Place the olives in a bowl with enough water to just cover them. Leave for a couple of hours. Drain the water.

For The Ice Cream:
1.) Add milk and vanilla extract to a pan and bring to a medium heat.
2.) In other bowl, add egg yolks, sugar and whisk until creamed
3.) Use a ladle to slowly add the heated milk into the creamed eggs and sugar, whilst continuously whisking.
4.) Once all the milk has been added to the egg/sugar mixture, pour back into the pot and stir the ice cream base with a wooden spoon over medium heat, until thickened.
5.) Allow the base to cool for at least four to five hours.
