Common Table Co.

So delighted about my little feature on The Common Table Co. today. I'm talking ceramics, chocolate chip cookies, and the significance of gathering around the table and sharing a meal. Check it out here

Some days dinner is baked olives and a glass of rosé, and I am absolutely okay with that. 

Baked Olives with Garlic and Thyme

This isn't really a recipe, so much as a method. Perhaps you will, like me, find that olives simply taste better when warmed up, especially as the days grow shorter and colder. 

assorted olives (my preference is Castelvetrano olives, as they are buttery and mild and really soak up any added flavours)
garlic cloves, sliced
fresh thyme (or other fresh, hearty herb of your choice)
olive oil

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Toss olives with sliced garlic, fresh herbs, and a heavy drizzle of olive oil. Bake in the oven, stirring occasionally, until garlic cloves look roasty and golden.
