For some reason, lately I have been thinking about being a kid. Maybe it is due to daily reminders that pop up when I see my own children. Watching them read books that I used to love or seeing the joy on their face when Mom blows a "BIG BIG BUBBLE." So naturally when I saw this recipe for marinated olives I was reminded of my childhood and putting jumbo black olives on my fingers during lunches at my Noni's house. There are many of pictures of my sister and I sitting in our Sunday dresses with big giant black olives on the tips of our fingers like giant black balls. We would sit and wave like we were the queen holding court, while I am pretty sure our whole family laughed and thought we were all in crazy town.
Well these olives are much more sophisticated and adult.
Crushed coriander seeds, orange, bay leaves and chili
Olives (pitted or not) marinated with the citrus for about an hour.
Olive oil, crushed coriander seeds, garlic cloves, bay leaves and chili just hang out for a while.
