Ingredients

  • ½ cup pitted briny green olives
  • ¼ cup Marcona almonds or other almonds, toasted

  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

1

Combine olives, almonds, tarragon and lemon juice in a food processor.

2

Pulse until roughly chopped.

3

Add oil in a steady stream and process just until the oil is absorbed (alternatively, finely chop the olives, almonds and tarragon by hand and combine with lemon juice and oil in a medium bowl) the spread should have a coarse but easily spoonable texture.

4

Let stand for about 30 minutes for the flavor to develop.

5

Make ahead tip: cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
