Ingredients:
1 cup Diana marinated artichokes, quartered
1 cup Pilaros garlic-stuffed green olives
1/4 cup Solon Extra Virgin olive oil
1/2 lemon, juiced
Handful parsley
1/4 tsp chili powder
Kalas Iodized Sea Salt
Pepper
Rosemary Oil:
1/2 cup olive oil
2-3 sprigs of rosemary, washed and completely dried
Instructions:
In a food processor, combine artichokes, olives, olive oil, lemon juice, chili powder, parsley, salt, and pepper. Pulse the mixture 8–10 times, breaking it down while keeping a slightly chunky texture. Refrigerate the tapenade for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavours to meld.
To make the rosemary oil, add olive oil and rosemary sprigs to a small saucepan. Heat over low heat for 5–10 minutes, ensuring the oil warms gently without simmering. Remove from heat and let the rosemary infuse for 15–30 minutes. Strain the infused oil into a clean glass bottle or jar and refrigerate for up to 10 days.
When ready to serve, plate the chilled artichoke tapenade and drizzle with the aromatic rosemary oil. Serve alongside crackers or crispy baguette slices for a perfect starter.
This Artichoke Tapenade is a delightful blend of bold and fresh flavours, with the brininess of the olives and artichokes complemented by the citrusy lemon juice and warm chili powder. The rosemary-infused olive oil adds a finishing touch of elegance and complexity, making it a showstopper at any table.
