Tapanade

Thread Starter: HCB    Started: Tue 17 Aug 2004    Replies: 1

This is kind of related to the post I've just done about an Italian meal but thought it would be best to go in a separate message.

We had, amongst other things, a black olive tapanade whilst at a restaurant last weekend. It was the first time I'd tried it and quite liked it.

I thought it would be good to have for our dinner aprty on Saturday and have seen green and black olive versions in the supermarkets. However, I thought it must be pretty easy enough to make myself (or more likely my husband who is the chef in the household!). Does anyone have a recipe or know where I can get a recipe from?

Thanks

Helen

helen,
like most of my cooking, this recipe is a little vague. - add as much as you like of any ingredients until you get the taste you are after.

put about a cup of olives (pitted - black or green), a few anchovies (if you like them), a tablespoon of capers, a big clove of garlic, a tablespoon of flat leaf parsley, 3 tablespoons of basil and juice of 1/2 a lemon or so in a wizzer. start off with about a 1/3 of a cup of olive oil and process until smooth, adding oil as needed to get your desired paste.


it is also really nice to put in sun-dried tomatoes and leave out the anchovies.
