GREEK OLIVE SPREAD (Alifi apo Elies) This is the Greek version of tapenade. In a food processor, place the feta cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes and oregano. Using the pulse setting, blend the mixture until smooth. Skordalia is basically a Greek garlic dip or spread made by combining crushed garlic with a thick base such as day-old bread or pureed potatoes, lots of olive oil and citrus-either a wine vinegar or fresh lemon juice.
Steps to make Greek olive spread:
- Combine all ingredients in food processor and blend well. If needed, add more olive oil.
- Drizzle bread with olive oil and bake until golden brown(I use Italian rosemary French bread) and top with goat cheese and olive spread.
Some skordalia recipes call for the addition of nuts such as walnut or almonds, which I do and highly recommend. Many commented on the surprised texture of the pecan pieces. Iomitted adding the olive juice because I thought it would be too tangy. I ended up with a perfectly spreadable delicious sandwich spread. Place the garlic cloves into a blender or food processor; pulse to mince.
