Artichoke Parmesan Tapenade
Delicae Gourmet

There are members on the Pure Zing team who are tapenade freaks…and I am one of them. There is almost nothing so rich, complex, delicious and compelling as a tapenade: a mixture and blend of ingredients that when combined as a whole become almost better than the parts.

What are the parts? Artichokes, olive oil, Parmesan, green olives, lemon juice, Zinfandel wine, capers, garlic, herbs and black pepper. Oh my! Yes each one is superb on its own, but meld these together and you have a flavor explosion that makes crusty bread heavenly. This tapenade blend makes pasta, chicken, fish and even sandwiches taste divine! We even spread it over pieces of cheese and mix it with yogurt as a dollop on top of soup. Try it on baked potatoes and blend it with cream cheese for a sophisticated dip. Yes, you can make your own, but why not just pop the lid off this MARVELOUS tapenade and sit back and revel in the flavor rather than slaving in the kitchen?

There are 6.6 ounces of this instant magic ingredient that elevates almost any recipe or appetizer. You will surely want several jars of this sitting on your shelf so that you can immediately transport yourself to sunny Mediterranean shores where this tapenade is appreciated almost daily. This beats onion dip any day of the week!

Rich, with just the faintest zing of capers and lemon juice, this tapenade will be a hit no matter how you serve it. Just open the jar and be prepared for the compliments! All natural and very sophisticated, this is fit for guest and as a hostess gift, but be sure and be selfish and stash several jars just for yourself… it’s Pure Zing!
