Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Prepare two pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil, crinkle them to create a dish.

Drizzle olive oil over the garlic in the foil.

Add a little sea salt to the garlic.

Seal the foil tightly and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Open a can of black olives and add them to a serving tray.

Add one can of green olives to the serving tray with the black olives.

Season the olives with a small amount of sea salt, oregano, thyme, and rosemary.

Drizzle 2 to 3 tablespoons of olive oil over the olives and mix them with your hands.

Scrunch the foil with the garlic tightly and place it on the baking sheet with the olives.

Turn the oven temperature down to 300°F after preheating to 350°F.

Roast the olives and garlic in the oven for about 1 hour.

After 1 hour, carefully open the foil to check the garlic; it should be soft.

Remove the garlic and olives from the oven and let them cool until they can be handled.

Serve the olives warm or at room temperature, or refrigerate and reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute before serving.
