Preparation

  • Put all the ingredients in a food processor , except for the pepper, and coarsely chop for about 4-5 seconds.
  • Mix with a spoon and chop again for a couple of seconds. Be careful not to over chop! You want a fine texture but not a purée!
  • Drop in a small airtight container. Season generously with pepper, stir well and put in fridge for about 24 hours! This olive tapenade is legendary on croutons or with fresh pastas!
