Broken Olive Antipasto Relish

Broken Olive Antipasto is not only really, really delicious but also the perfect recipe to make with helpers of all ages! Crumbling those olives between your fingers is great fun! 

A few years ago I began unpacking the many recipes I had printed and saved through the years. As I began the task, I quickly realized that so many recipes were no longer what I was looking for...not for my family or my tastebuds. 

Like a storage unit not visited for a long period of time, the first thought is, what have I been saving this for?! Most became recycling, but a few were saved because they still caught my attention, including this one! 

This recipe for Broken Olive Antipasto is one of those, one of the keepers. If you are an olive fan, you will want to make this, immediately! It is delicious and as luck would have it, also a good keeper, as my mom used to say. 

It is the type of recipe you can spend a few minutes working on during the week, only to find it waiting for you when you need it the most! Such as, for the weekend when you want time with family and friends, but you also want to eat delicious food. Especially when you want to eat delicious food!...

adapted from:  Nick Sundberg

makes 1 pint

1 16oz can black olives, drained

1 thickish slice of red onion, minced 

1 rib celery with the top leaves, minced

1 large clove garlic, minced

1/4 t sugar

1/2 oregano leaves, crumbled

1/2 c red wine vinegar 

1/4 c water

2 T olive oil

Crumble the olives between your thumb and forefinger. Combine with remaining ingredients, refrigerate overnight before serving.It should keep well for approximately 2 months, but my guess is, it won't last that long! Serve anywhere you want a dash of flavor.

Frugal tip, when the relish has been enjoyed to the bottom of the jar, use the rest as a marinade for chicken thighs or fish filets, the flavor combination is quite lovely as a marinade.
