15 minutes

Tomato tapenade is an exquisite variation of the classic French delicacy inspired by Provençal traditions. Its rich flavor comes from a blend of sweet sun-dried tomatoes, tangy capers, rich olives, and subtle notes of fresh rosemary. A light acidity from lemon juice and the sharpness of Dijon mustard add sophistication, while olive oil binds the ingredients into a smooth paste. This tapenade is wonderful as an accompaniment to fresh baguette, crackers, or Mediterranean dishes. It is perfect for aperitifs, creating an atmosphere of southern France with its leisurely outdoor dinners. It can be used as a spread, sauce, or even a marinade for fish and meat, opening up endless gastronomic possibilities.
