I made the olives on Friday for happy hour with some friends. Everyone popped one in the mouth and moaned in unison. I wish I could figure out an easier way to push the cheese in the olives.... but it doesn't matter. They're heaven on earth.
I used a pastry bag with a tip with a wee opening (just big enough for a mustard seed). Speeds the process up immensely.

added about 1 year agoThanks Savorykitchen -- we did the same. Made it a lot easier.
oh wow! thank you! i'm so happy you liked them!
Thanks for including my oysters in the lineup! I'll be making the stuffed olives this evening for our viewing party. Yum.
I can vouch for the fact that your oysters are delicious. Hopefully more people will get over their fear of frying and try them out! (Also, I need to make those olives, soon.)
What I failed to appreciate before I moved to San Diego in 1974 is that the Oscars are an unofficial state holiday here. Too bad we can't make money from it, Ahh-nold...Tomorrow,SDUT will have blaring headlines, kind of shameful with a capital "S", I think - unless Meryl gets it for you know who!
I've been sick in bed almost all week and so what a delightful surprise to log in today to see that my soup was one of the things you featured! Thanks so much!!

Thank you for including the Leek, Lemon & Feta Quiche in the Oscars party roundup! I'm honored. I will have to serve up another slice of gratitude. Hope everyone has a great weekend, and that the favorites all win.
I love your themed menus! & thanks for including the posset! A lot of these recipes don't require an oven, so I can make something! Fingers crossed that the Sears guy can fix mine on Tuesday!
Oven down? Sorry to hear; don't know what I'd do. Well, yes, I'd get on my landlord's case and have a rare moment of being glad that I rent and don't own. And maybe I'd stop making and eating so many quiches and tarts and cookies, and get back to salads. Hope it's fixed soon.
I can barely stand this - do you want my credit card number? I remember your lemon posset and know, "This woman is OK and a serious baker/ cook. She is stable, probably more than you are." Why do I want to buy you a stove...
