Olives

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Combine the Olives

    In a large mixing bowl, combine green olives, black olives, and Kalamata olives. Ensure all olives are pitted for a pleasant eating experience.

  2. 2

    Add Aromatics

    To the bowl of olives, add minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, and red chili flakes. Mix gently to distribute the aromatics evenly among the olives.

  3. 3

    Prepare Marinade

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and freshly ground black pepper until well combined.

  4. 4

    Marinate the Olives

    Pour the marinade over the olive mixture. Toss gently to ensure all the olives are coated in the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap.

  5. 5

    Let it Rest

    Allow the olives to marinate at room temperature for at least 1 hour, or for best results, refrigerate for up to 24 hours to enhance the flavors.
