Amazing Breads with Olives to Try
We all love bread – and if there is one way to make bread even more delicious, it’s by adding California Ripe Olives. Olives add so much flavor and texture to everything from no-knead olive bread and fancy fougasse, to cheesy pizza and sandwiches piled high with all of the things. Be sure to pick up a few cans of ripe olives from California (either green or black work in most recipes) so you can satisfy your olive bread cravings whenever the mood strikes.
