Tapenade
- 2 cups Greek or Moroccan dry-cured olives, pitted
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- 6 ounces anchovy filets, drained and patted dry
- 16-ounce can good-quality canned tuna in oil, drained
- 1/2 cup capers, drained
- 1 tablespoon green peppercorns in brine, drained and chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons grated lemon zest
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons cognac (optional)
- 23 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Lemon shells (recipe above)
- Pulse all ingredients except oil and shells in a food processor until just combined.
- With motor running, slowly pour in oil.
- Do not overprocess: the tapenade should have some chunkiness.
- Refrigerate for later use or spoon into lemon shells.
