Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 pound pitted black Mediterranean-style olives
4 teaspoons capers -- drained
4 anchovy fillets
1 garlic clove -- finely minced
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 cup olive oil

Coarsely chop all ingredients together in a food processor and serve with fougasse or any flatbread you like.

Tapenade stores in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Makes 1 1/2 cups dip

AuthorNote: Our tour of dips for pita and flatbread seems like a tour of the Mediterranean, and what better place to end than in the south of France, where this tapenade is a perennial favorite. The briny flavors of the anchovy are mellowed by the olives and the oil. You can even use this as a baked flatbread topping - spread it sparingly on a docked (punctured) pita before it's baked and you have a terrific hot hors d'oeuvre.
