Sun-Dried Tomato and Olive Tapenade from Sutter Buttes

California Tomato and Olive Spread

Sutter Buttes’ Sun-Dried Tomato Olive Tapenade combines California-grown sun-dried tomatoes with crushed Greek Kalamata olives. This tapenade has all the hallmarks of the classic French style—briny and salty with a rustic texture—plus an extra punch of sweet and savory notes from tomatoes dried in the California sun.

How to use

Ready to savor straight from the jar, simply spread this Sun-Dried Tomato Olive Tapenade on a crusty baguette with tangy fresh cheeses, such as chèvre or feta. Use it to complement roast chicken—either spooned over butterflied breast or as the spiraled filling for an eye-catching roulade. Or, make a quick riff on puttanesca sauce by combining it with Anchovy Fillets in Olive Oil from IASA in a warm skillet and toss with Linguine from Rustichella d’Abruzzo.
