MARINATED OLIVES
          JUMP TO RECIPE
Keep a container of these olives in your fridge year
round to add to your antipasti platter, or to nibble on
with a glass of wine before dinner. This is a great, easy
appetizer to keep on hand at all times! The marinade
will keep for weeks in the refrigerator, just keep
adding extra oil and vinegar, and fresh herbs as
needed.
Note: These olives will keep for several weeks if
refrigerated. Remember to stir occasionally to ensure
even mixing. When ready to serve, use a slotted spoon
to remove the olives from the oil mixture as this
mixture can be used again and again by just using new
olives.
Buon Appetito!

  How long can the olives last in the fridge?
     DEBORAH — AUGUST 21, 2019 @ 1:40 PM       REPLY
     I keep the olives for up to a week.

  Where do you find the olives? Are they
  canned or Jarred?
  Thank you!!
     DEBORAH — NOVEMBER 15, 2019 @ 2:08 AM       REPLY
     Yoiu can use any good flavored olives. I
     sometimes use jarred, and sometimes buy them
     in bulk.
