SUNDRIED TOMATO TAPENADE



Sundried Tomato Tapenade image

A to-die-for take on the usual olive tapenade. Don't use California sundried tomatoes because they are too sweet! Every time I make this I get requests for the recipe! I've never actually had the patience to chill this and always end up serving it right away. It's a huge hit! Serve with your favorite crackers.

  • Use a food processor to chop the ingredients for the tapenade. This will help to create a smooth and consistent texture.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the ingredients by hand. Just be sure to chop them very finely.
  • Season the tapenade to taste with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste, such as basil, oregano, or garlic powder.
  • Serve the tapenade with endive leaves, crackers, or bread. You can also use it as a sandwich spread or as a dip for vegetables.
