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.

Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
