Tapenade
Simple, savory, and perfectly salty, good tapenades should be the best thing to spread on a cracker.
Ingredients
- ½ cup green olives (pitted)
- ½ cup black olives (pitted)
- 2 Tablespoons parsley with thin stems, flat-leaf, fresh, lightly packed
- 2 garlic minced or pressed, medium cloves
- 1 teaspoon anchovy paste (optional)
- 1 Tablespoon capers (drained)
- 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In the bowl of your food processor, combine all of the ingredients. Pulse briefly about 10 times, then scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Pulse about 5 to 10 more times until well chopped, but not pureed, or until you reach your desired texture.
- Serve on small slices of toasted baguettes or use your favorite crackers.
Notes
- No food processor? Finely chop the solid ingredients by hand, then stir all of the ingredients together in a bowl.
