cooking spray
Olives
2 cups brine cured olives
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
3 rosemary sprigs

Cut tomatoes in half.
Spray roasting dish with cooking spray and put a
little olive oil in the bottom.
Arrange tomatoes cut side up . and sprinkle some salt, pepper, olive
oil and chopped garlic and herbs
on top.
Put in oven at 400 degrees and cook until the edges get
slightly blackened.
This will take about 45 minutes.
Next take the olives and rinse off the salt brine. Mix with pepper
flakes, rosemary sprigs, orange zests
and wine in a baking dish.
Cover with foil and put in the oven 20
minutes. Remove foil last five minutes.
Drain the capers and dry on paper towels.
5 minutes before the
tomatoes and capers are done, heat the olive oil in a skillet
and when hot put in the capers, They will puff up when done.
On each plate, put a tomato half or two, some olives and capers.
Drizzle over some olive oil and balsamic
vinegar and serve with crusty bread as a first course.
Memorable.
Also, you can serve the Baked Feta
from the Crinella Family Cookbook with this.
Enjoy with our 2005 Sauvignon Blanc.
