How to Make Tangier Olive Jar

  1. Rinse 1 cup of assorted olives (Nicoise, Kalamata, Picholine, and stuffed olives) thoroughly and drain well.
  2. Pack the olives tightly into a clean, 1-pint jar with a tight-fitting lid.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional), and a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  4. Pour the mixture over the olives in the jar.
  5. Secure the lid firmly and gently shake the jar to coat the olives evenly.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours, turning the jar occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld. The longer it marinates (up to 7 days), the more intense the flavor will become.
  7. Serve chilled and enjoy!
