Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:
For homemade green olive tapenade, to serve on the toast, stone 250 g (8 oz) green olives then finely chop them in a food processor with a small bunch of fresh basil, 2 garlic cloves, 2 teaspoons drained capers, 4 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar. This tapenade can also be served with crudités or tossed with pasta.
