Olives are ancient. Olives are not meant for everyone. Only to be enjoyed by a most refined palate. For centuries, the Romans nurtured on their fruit. Its very branch became a universal symbol of peace. Olives are more than a peace offering. Fat, notoriously evil, can nurture when extracted from a plump Olive. I have enjoyed many Olives, and Olive mixes in my lifetime, but this is by far my favorite. This mix harmoniously balances itself to give an unforgettable culinary experience.
Best Olive mix
Cuquillo olives
Black Moroccan oil cured olives
Casatlevetrano olives
Spanish Manzanilla olives
fresh rosemary
Valencia oranges, sliced
bay leaves
Mix all of the olives and their brine. Add desired rosemary, oranges (alot of both), and a couple bay leaves. Let sit in refrigerator overnight.
