Sun-Dried Tomato Tapenade

Directions

Place the tomatoes in a bowl and cover with boiling water.

Set aside until softened, about 2 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

When cool, place in a jar, cover with the olive oil and set aside at room temperature for 1 week.

Pick the tomatoes out of the jar, leaving plenty of oil on them.

Reserve the remaining oil. In a processor, combine the tomatoes with the capers, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice and herbs.

Pulse until a very coarse, rough purée forms, adding some of the reserved oil, if necessary.

Season to taste with salt.
