INSTRUCTIONS
Former restaurant chef McGlynn and her husband Ridgely Evers produce olive
oil from their 4,500 trees in Healdsburg. McGlynn likes to marinate
dry-cured olives, blanching them first to remove some of their salt.
INSTRUCTIONS: Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the
olives and simmer for 15 seconds, then drain well.
Place all remaining ingredients in a saucepan over low heat. When the
mixture is warm, remove from heat. Add the olives and toss.
If the olives need more acidity, add lemon juice or a splash of red wine
vinegar. Let marinate for a few hours at room temperature before serving.
Refrigerate for longer keeping, but bring to room temperature before
serving. Yields 1 quart.
