Recipe Introduction


Whichever of these two different preparations you choose, be sure to marinate the olives for at least 2 days before setting them out with drinks. They will keep very well for up to a week in the refrigerator.

• 1 lb brine-cured black olives, rinsed of brine
  
• 3 cloves garlic, crushed
  
• 1 tsp ground cumin
  
• 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  
• olive oil
  
• For Green Olives:
  
• 1 lb brine-cured green olives, rinsed of brine
  
• 4 cloves garlic, crushed
  
• 2 T dried oregano
  
• 2 thin orange or lemon zest strips
  
• olive oil
