My sister-in-law brought this to our beach house this summer, where we had a tapenade taste-off. This was the winner. I had this on seafood, with chips, with veggies, on bruschetta, and even used it as a sandwich spread!

Time 10m

Yield 1 jar

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (7 ounce) jar roasted red peppers, coarsely chopped
1 (6 ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup minced fresh parsley
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup drained capers
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in food processor, turning off/on until finely chopped.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning with salt& pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh artichokes. Look for artichokes that are heavy for their size, with tightly closed leaves and no blemishes.
  • Cook the artichokes properly. Boiling or steaming the artichokes until they are tender but still hold their shape is important.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. The olive oil is a key ingredient in tapenade, so it's important to use a good quality oil that has a fruity flavor.
  • Don't overprocess the tapenade. Tapenade should have a slightly chunky texture, so don't overprocess it in the food processor.
  • Season the tapenade to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste until you achieve the desired flavor.

Conclusion:

Artichoke tapenade is a delicious and versatile spread that can be used as a dip, sandwich spread, or condiment. It's easy to make and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. With its bright flavor and creamy texture, artichoke tapenade is a surefire crowd-pleaser.
