Instructions

  1. Using an olive pitter, pit the ½ cup of Italian Castelveterano Whole Green Olives.
  2. Place the pitted olives, Kalamata olives, anchovy paste, garlic clove, capers, fresh parsley, lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil in a blender. Begin to blend until almost smooth (about 30 seconds). Add in the remaining tablespoon of olive oil while blending.
  3. Place in a dish and serve immediately or refrigerate (covered) until ready to serve to guest.

Notes

  • Chunkier Tapenade: For a chunkier texture, finely chop the ingredients by hand instead of using a food processor. If you prefer it smoother, give it a quick pulse in the food processor, but avoid over-blending.
  • Adjust to taste: Add more lemon juice for brightness or extra olive oil for a richer, silkier consistency. Feel free to taste and tweak until it’s perfect.
  • Garnish for a finishing touch: A sprinkle of extra parsley or a few lemon zest curls on top before serving adds a fresh, appetizing look.
  • Serve with variety: Offer it with an assortment of crackers, crusty bread, or even fresh veggies to accommodate different preferences.
  • Experiment with herbs: If you’re a fan of herbs, try adding fresh basil or thyme along with the parsley for an extra layer of flavor.
