🫒 Black Olive Tapenade Spread – Mediterranean Magic in a Bowl
👥 Serves: 4 people
⏲️ Preparation time: 10 minutes
❄️ Rest time: 30 minutes
🛒 Ingredients
🫒 240 g pitted black olives – deep, rich, and full of flavor
🌿 20 g capers – tangy little flavor bombs
🧄 2 garlic cloves (≈ 10 g) – peeled and ready to mingle
🐟 2 anchovy fillets in oil (≈ 30 g) – for a savory, umami punch
🫗 2 tbsp olive oil (30 ml) – silky smooth Mediterranean gold
🍋 Zest of 1 untreated lemon – fresh citrus brightness
⚫ Freshly ground black pepper – to taste
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Preparation
1️⃣ Combine the stars 🫒
In the bowl of a food processor, add the black olives, capers, and anchovies. Toss in the peeled garlic cloves for that irresistible aroma.
2️⃣ Pulse to perfection 🔄
Blend in short bursts until you get a thick, slightly textured paste. Don’t go too smooth — a little chunkiness makes it rustic and authentic.
3️⃣ Add the golden touch 🫗
While the blades are turning briefly, drizzle in the olive oil to emulsify the mixture. Season generously with freshly ground pepper.
