Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of pitted black olives, plump ones
- 1 1/2 cups of cracked green olives
- 3 tablespoons of chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 garlic cloves
- 2 tablesoons of fresh chopped mint
- freshly ground black papper to taste
- pinch of red pepper flakes
- 1 1/2 tablespoons of sherry wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon of balsalmic vinegar
- 4 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil for blending
- extra virgin olive oil to top the jar for storage
Directions
- Rinse the olives thoroughly in running water. Taste the olives and if they are very salty; let them stand in warm water for two hours, drain.
- Dry on paper towels.
- Remove pits and chop coarsely.
- Place olives, cilantro, garlic, mint, peppers, and sherry vinegar and balsalmic vinegar in a food processor.
- Process until you have a homgeneous paste, then with the motor running, slowly add the four tablespoons of olive oil.
- Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more pepper and balsalmic as needed.
- Transfer olive paste to a jar and top with a little virgin olive oil to completely cover the top. Place in refrigerator at least one day to mellow the olive paste.
- Use as a spread on toasted bread.
- This is wonderful spread on chicken breasts and baked and served with a bed of sauteed tri-color peppers and crumbled feta. Not just a bread spread.
