ORANGE AND FENNEL MARINATED OLIVES



Orange and Fennel Marinated Olives image

As much as I love to eat crunchy snacks, I also really enjoy the juicy savory bite of olives. But I temper their saltiness with the anise aroma of fennel, the sweetness of orange, and a little heat. Over the years, we've been able to get an increasing variety of olives-even in our local markets. I like combining different Mediterranean varieties and always buy them unpitted.

Yield Makes 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup large green brine-cured olives, preferably Sevillano and Castelvetrano
1/2 cup kalamata olives
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/8 teaspoon crushed red chile flakes
2 (4-inch) strips fresh orange zest (removed with a vegetable peeler)
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • If you're able to find Sevillano olives, rinse them under cold water for 5 minutes, then soak them in cold water for 2 hours. Drain well.
  • Combine the olives in a medium bowl.
  • Toast the fennel seeds in a small skillet over medium heat until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the chile flakes and toast until just fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat and add the orange zest and oil. Steep until cool.
  • Pour the oil mixture over the olives. Cover and marinate at room temperature for 6 hours or refrigerate for up to 3 days.
