available at Middle Eastern and Mediterranean markets. If using uncracked whole olives, crush lightly with flat side of large knife on a cutting board. In a large bowl cover olives with cold water and soak 4 hours to remove excess salt. Drain olives well. In a bowl stir together olives and remaining ingredients and marinate, covered and chilled, at least 6 hours or overnight. Olives may be prepared 1 week ahead and kept chilled, covered. Serve olives at room temperature. Makes about 3 cups. Gourmet August 1994 Converted by MC_Buster. Converted by MM_Buster v2.0l.
