Ok Ivonne give it up! Your a professional food stylist and photographer..Anyway I like your style and I observe your olive display popping blue cheese stuffed olives into my piehole.

What a wonderful olive dish!

Thank you for the olives (recipe) and for including those who are having long days at school!

I never really eat marinated olives on its own. Any suggestion on how I can pair this antipasti?

Oh, thank you very much! I’ve only recently begun to like olives and I know I’d like these very much.

Ivonne, you can offer me an olive any time! Your the best hostess, we all agree. Great picture btw.

Ivonne, there are few simple pleasures in life better than a good olive.

Does the original recipe call for 1 teaspoon crushed coriander seed? I do like coriander.

Also, what’s a cracked olive?

Mmmh, I love olives and eat them on the weekends with a little wine!
Yours look very tasteful and colourful, wow!!!

Great pic. Olives are pretty new to me, although I have made the French Olive Cookies last month, thanks to blogging I get to know of all the different world cuisines & the recipies !! Will try this one too.

i had similar olives the other night in a restaurant, minus the chili pepper flakes, and they were fantastic. so i will have to try your recipe soon!

Yes please !
I am a huge olive fan, my favourite being the olives stuffed with anchovy which you can find in Spain.
Yours look delicious, as always your photography is beautiful.

hi ivonne, what a beautiful picture! makes me want to reach out and pluck a plump olive right from the screen…sigh

Ivonne, I love the dish you’ve displayed the olives in. Seems to me that not only do you have an overburdened bookshelf - but there’s a well stocked crockery cupboard too
And the olives look yummy too!

Delightful, Ivonne! Now if I could just have a tall, cool gin & tonic with that, life would be perfect!

My kids would eat those olives up in 2 minutes! They love tangy citrusy flavours. Yum Great photo as always!

I love olives,I’ve never paired them with fennel before,but as an herb I’m currently hung up on…perfect!

Hi Ivonne, can I have more than one ? Looks delicious.

Why thank you Ivonne so much! I just love olives. If they’re put in front of me I will devour, one little olive at a time. I’ve never thought to make a real olive dish though. Wow! How creative, with lemon and fennel? Sounds like a must bring to any party.

I so have everything to make that at home in the pantry/fridge!
Yum. beautiful pictures.

I usually have a little can of green olives stuffed with anchovies, jalapenos or garlic in my cupboard. Just a great snack after getting off the footy (soccer) pitch… speaking of which…

It’s beautiful. I’ll like eating that when I’m so tired afer a hard work…

Fennel and olives sounds lovely!

all of my favorite ingredients!
