Actually, I accustomed to using some Kalamata Olives to make tapenade but I really like the size, color, and taste of these Spanish Manzanilla Olives with Minced Pimento. The Spanish olives make this tapenade’s flavor bolder and stronger. Also, I usually add 1 extra clove of garlic and some fresh lime juice, instead of lemon juice, for the maximum kick.


Lately, however, I use a lot of Sicilian Castelvetrano Olives, and I really like them because they are greener and look fresher than the Spanish olives. What can I say, I am after all a little bit sensitive to the color of green when it comes to food.

Seriously, I wasn’t kidding about using some fresh parsley. They’re just plucked from my own one-pot indoor balcony herb garden. Read also my blog on How to repot supermarket herbs into one-pot indoor herb garden. Fresh is fresh indeed.
