Notes
- Variations: For an added flavor depth, consider incorporating a few anchovy fillets or a teaspoon of anchovy paste.
- Texture: The final texture of your tapenade depends on your personal preference - pulse a bit longer for a smoother blend, or keep it chunky with a shorter processing time.
- Serving Size: This recipe yields approximately 1.5 cups of tapenade, perfect for a gathering or for storing in the fridge for your own use.
- Sun-dried Tomato Oil: If the sun-dried tomatoes don't come in enough oil, substitute with extra virgin olive oil.
