Time 40m

Yield 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup stemmed and quartered dried black figs (use dried Black Mission figs, if available)
3/4 cup water
1 cup black kalamata olive, Nicoise, Nyons, Greek, rinsed and pitted
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons whole grain mustard
1 small garlic clove, peeled
1/2 tablespoon capers, rinsed, drained and squeezed dry
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
salt and black pepper, if necessary

Steps:

  • In a medium-sized saucepan, simmer the figs in the water for about 30 minutes, until very tender. Drain, reserving a few tablespoons of the liquid.
  • In a food processor or with an immersion blender, pulse the pitted olives, drained figs, lemon juice, mustard, garlic, capers, and fresh rosemary to create a thick paste. Pulse in the olive oil until you've achieved a chunky-smooth paste. Season with black pepper and salt, if necessary. (The spread can be thinned with a bit of the reserved fig poaching liquid.).
  • Serve tapenade with slices of baguette or pita triangles that have been lightly brushed with olive oil and perhaps sprinkled with salt and fresh thyme, or a dusting of chili powder, then toasted on a baking sheet in the oven until nice and crisp.
