KALAMATA OLIVE TAPENADE (SPREAD OR DIP)
This is a simple, versatile tapenade. It is best on warm focaccia or toasted slices of baguette, spread in a very thin layer. It is also terrific on sandwiches. Spread it on the inside of the bread before you make a grilled cheese (best w/cheddar) or a fresh mozzarella and tomato sandwich. It's also a good dip for baby carrots or just about anything else. I've used leftover tapenade as a sauce on pasta, as well. It's very rich and flavorful. This recipe keeps well and is a favorite at parties.

Steps:
- Add garlic to food processor, blend until minced. Add remaining ingredients except olive oil. Blend until smooth, adding olive oil slowly while the blade is running.
- Adjust ingredients to your liking - Additional pine nuts, parsley or pitted canned black olives will make it less salty and intense in flavor, while additional oil will increase the creaminess. You can also use other fresh herbs such as sage or basil.
- Serve at room temperature.

CAULIFLOWER STEAKS WITH KALAMATA OLIVE AND RED PEPPER TAPENADE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- For the tapenade: In a food processor, combine the olives, red peppers, raisins, capers, parsley, orange zest, tarragon and black pepper. Pulse six or seven times, just until roughly chopped. Pour in the olive oil and pulse 2 or 3 times to incorporate; the mixture should have the consistency of a coarse puree. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the cauliflower steaks: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat.
- Remove the green outer leaves from the cauliflower heads, leaving the cores intact. Set the cauliflowers on their base and halve them vertically (a serrated knife works well for this). Then slice each half, vertically again, into 1-inch steaks; the core will hold them together. You should end up with four nice steaks; reserve the ends for another use.
- Generously coat the steaks on both sides with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the steaks for 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and well-marked. Remove to a foil-lined baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, mix together the Parmesan, panko, parsley, garlic and pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the breading on top of the cauliflower steaks and drizzle with some olive oil. Transfer to the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve the steaks topped with spoonfuls of the tapenade.

Steps:
- In a food processor, combine all the ingredients except the cherry tomatoes. Pulse until all ingredients are well combined. Season with freshly ground black pepper. Slice cherry tomatoes in half.

SUN-DRIED TOMATO AND KALAMATA OLIVE TAPENADE
Recipe From Oxmoor House. Note: Ready-to-Use Sun-Dried Tomatoes: Be sure to buy ready-to-use sun-dried tomatoes packed without oil for this savory spread. Because they've undergone a special process that adds back moisture, there's no need to reconstitute them, and they don't have the high fat of dried tomatoes packed in oil. Like all sun-dried tomatoes, this convenient product is high in vitamin A and is a good source of potassium.

PASTA WITH KALAMATA OLIVE TAPENADE, FETA, AND CHOPPED TOMATO
Tapenade paired with an aromatic paste of briny Greek black olives with sweet pieces of ripe tomato and small cubes of the eastern Mediterranean's pungent Greek sheep's milk cheese makes up this luscious dish. You'll can find Kalamata olives sold by weight in the deli cases of well-stocked supermarkets, as well as in jars. Some may be found already pitted. Substitute any other brine-cured Mediterranean olives you like. Serve with spaghetti, linguine, tagliatelle, or other medium-width strands or ribbons. One you won't want to miss!
