- #102474

2-5 hrs
ingredients
1 cup water
1/4 cup salt
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon peppercorns
6 cloves garlic
1 branch fresh rosemary
OR
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 branch fresh thyme
OR
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup vermouth
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 pound pitted large green olives
directions
Place the water, salt, red pepper flakes, peppercorns, garlic, rosemary, and thyme in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then immediately remove the pan from the heat. Add the vermouth and olive oil and stir well.
Let cool to room temperature. Stir in the olives and transfer to a container with a tight-fitting lid. Refrigerate until ready to use.
NOTE: If you use large, firm, green olives-those that have a waxy look-you can make this recipe up to 1 week in advance. If you use softer green olives-those that look slightly shriveled, with papery-looking skin-make them no more than 24 hours in advance or they will plump up too much.
