Mashed black olives make an excellent spread or a topping
for vegetables. They can also be used as a last minute stuffing for
already cooked poultry. Any leftover olive mash can be saved in the
refrigerator; it will keep for a few days in a covered container. Try
experimenting with the flavor by adding chili, coriander, or fresh
basil leaves.
