Warm Rosemary Olives

















Ingredients:
6 cups mixed olives, such as Niçoise, Spanish, Picholine, and Greek
5 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
Preparation;
Combine the olives, rosemary, and red pepper flakes in the center of 1 or 2 large sheets of aluminum foil. Fold the foil to enclose the olives in a pouch. (Recipe can made to this point 1 day ahead, Refrigerate.) Heat oven to 400º F. Bake for 30 minutes. Serve warm.
Note: Heating up olives with herbs and spices is an easy upgrade of a familiar party food, and it perfumes the house with a heady, exotic aroma.
Yields 6 cups, or enough for 30 guests
