3 Tips for Excellent Olive Tapenade

Olive tapenade can be made simply and quickly thanks to the food processor, but if you use a food processor (which is highly recommended), keep in mind a few things:

1. Pulse. Don't purée.
2. Chop half of the parsley by hand.
3. Stir in the olive oil by hand.

I really like your no nonsense style: concise and straight to the point. No music. No artsy cinematography. I'll be back for more recipes.

I recommend adding diced tomatoes at the end and add sea salt

Would using sun dried olives in the tapenade instead of brine olives make for more olive taste in the final product? Thank you for showing your skill and art in keeping this simple... pure and simple.

Have you ever tried Muhammara? Makdous? I think you'll love it.

[kosmosbjm]

Most of the other recipes call for anchovies or anchovy paste….should this be used?
