SUN-DRIED TOMATO AND OLIVE BREADS
Steps:
- Into a bowl sift together the flour, the baking powder, the baking soda, the salt, and the sugar. In a small skillet cook the garlic with the rosemary and the pepper in the reserved oil from the sun-dried tomatoes over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is softened and fragrant but not brown. In a large bowl whisk together the eggs, the milk, the shortening, and the garlic mixture, add the flour mixture, and stir the batter until it is just combined. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes, the olives, the capers, the parsley, and the Parmesan, divide the batter among 4 buttered and floured loaf pans, each 5 3/4 by 3 1/4 by 2 inches, and bake the breads in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Remove the breads from the pans and let them cool, right sides up, on a rack. The breads keep, wrapped well in plastic wrap and foil, chilled for 1 week or frozen for 1 month.

Steps:
- Mix first 5 ingredients in small bowl. Season to taste with red pepper and salt. Cover and refrigerate overnight. (Can be prepared 4 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
Tips:
- Choose the right olives: For this recipe, it's best to use firm, oil-cured olives. These olives will hold their shape well and won't become mushy when they're cooked.
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the flavor of your olives will be. If possible, use fresh garlic, orange zest, and sun-dried tomatoes.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: This recipe is a great starting point, but feel free to adjust the ingredients to suit your own taste. For example, you could add more chili flakes for a spicier olive, or more orange zest for a brighter flavor.
- Let the olives marinate: The longer the olives marinate, the more flavorful they will be. Ideally, you should marinate them for at least 24 hours, but you can also marinate them for up to a week.
