tapenade

to spread on crostini & sandwiches; toss with pasta, rice, potatoes; dress a salad


ingredients seen above:
2 cups black pitted olives
2 tbsp capers, rinsed
6 thin anchovy filets
one garlic clove
1/4 cup fresh parsley
1tsbp tomato paste (can be left out if you are a purist. but i like that extra dimension of acidity)

You can chop and combine this by hand, on a board if you want a rough cut.
Otherwise pulse in food processor.
As I have mentioned before, a house favorite is this spread on a baguette with fresh mozzarella.
