    6. Stir once more when the time is up. 
    7. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

    👩‍🍳 Chef Tip

    1. If in a hurry, microwave the olives in a microwave-safe bowl on high in 2-minute intervals. Stir every 2 minutes until warmed through.
    2. Serve on a cheese and charcuterie board.
    3. Give roasted marinated olives as a hostess gift. 
    4. If you have leftovers you can make an Olive dip. <--- There is a warm and chilled version.

    📝 Frequently asked questions, answers and tips:

    How long will these marinated olives keep in the fridge?

    Keep the olives in the fridge for up to a month, if they last that long! Warm in the microwave before serving or allow them to come to room temperature naturally.
