Preparation
- Puree fennel seeds, garlic, orange juice and vinegar in a blender, or with a mortar and pestle, until a liquid paste is formed. This will take 2 or 3 minutes in the blender, and twice as long with a pestle.
- With a rubber spatula, scrape every bit of the fennel mixture onto the olives. Stir orange peel, lemon peel and honey into the olives.
- Cover and refrigerate at least 24 hours, stirring or shaking occasionally.
