Aceitunas Alinadas Marinated Green Olives Recipes

Spanish cooks like to buy their olives at the market and marinate them themselves. They add roasted peppers, lemon slices, along with thyme, bay leafs and other seasonal herbs, seeds and vegetables. A jar of these is handy to have in the pantry to serve with a selection of tapas and drinks. From the book "World Food - SPAIN" by Beverly Leblanc.

These are served as tapas in Spain. I'm posting it here to celebrate Spain advancing to the semifinals of the World Cup. The longer you let the olives marinate, the more flavor they'll absorb.

Here's an enticing Moorish-inspired dish from Alicante. It's a great simple way to jazz up a bowl of olives. In Seville, a similar marinade would be made with the juice from bitter oranges-try it both ways. The longer the olives marinate, the tastier they get, so start ahead. Adapted from "The New Spanish Table" cookbook. Marinating time is not included in 'cook time'.

From Penelope Casas' "Tapas: The Little Dishes of Spain". A fabulous tapas recipe for those who love green olives and thyme! The recipe should be made several days ahead to allow time for the flavors to develop--I aim for about a week ahead. Times are estimated.

Another recipe from Penelope Casas' "Tapas: The Little Dishes of Spain". This is best made several days in advance; I try to make it about a week before. She says it will keep for weeks in the refrigerator; mine never make it that long. As with her other recipes, try to use Spanish ingredients when available for the most authentic flavor. Times are approximate.
