Experience the authentic flavors of a Spanish tapas bar with this easy and traditional recipe of Spanish-style Marinated Olives. Start with a mixture of 3 olives – Perdigon (the smallest of the bunch), manzanilla (the classic Spanish olive) and queen (large and meaty). Then marinate with classic Spanish flavors – like olive oil, sherry vinegar, garlic, thyme and crushed red pepper. Sprinkle in some Spanish-style marcona almonds for buttery crunch, if you wish, before serving.
