1 (6 ounce) canmedium black olives, pitted
1 (7 ounce) jar green olives
5 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
1 teaspoon anchovy paste or 1 anchovy, cut up
1 ½ tablespoons capers, rinsed
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
fresh ground pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil

1
Empty the black olives into a strainer to drain completely, then put into food processor.
2
Repeat above step with pimiento stuffed green olives, then the capers (be sure to rinse the capers while they are in the strainer, or they will add too much salt).
3
Put the lemon juice into a small bowl and press the garlic cloves into the juice.
4
Add to the processor bowl.
5
Add the remaining ingredients to the processor bowl: anchovy paste (or chopped anchovy), parmesan, oregano, basil,& fresh ground pepper.
6
Cover& pulse until coarsely chopped.
7
While processing at low speed, add the tablespoon of olive oil, use more if you wish, but I have found the one tablespoon sufficient, and it cuts down on the fat of the spread.
8
A delicious addition to this recipe is 6-8 sun dried tomatoes packed in oil.
9
Pat excess oil off with a paper towel& add with the olives.
10
Serve with toast, crackers, foccacia, or even use to cook with.
11
It is wonderful with Havarti cheese, too!
