Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup stemmed & quartered dried black figs (about 3 oz)
3/4 cup water
1 cup black olives ( nicoise , lyon or greek, rinsed and pitted)
1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp whole grain mustard
1 garlic clove, peeled
1/2 tbsp capers, rinsed and drained
1 tsp finely chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
salt and black pepper , if necessary

Directions:

In a medium-sized saucepan, simmer the figs in the water for about 30 minutes, until very tender.
Drain, reserving a few tablespoons of the liquid.
If using a food processor, pulse the pitted olives, drained figs, lemon juice, mustard, garlic, capers, and fresh rosemary to create a thick paste.
Pulse in the olive oil until you’ve achieved a chunky-smooth paste.
Season with black pepper and salt, if necessary.
(The spread can be thinned with a bit of the reserved fig poaching liquid). If using a mortar and pestle, mash the olives with the garlic, capers, and fresh rosemary.
Pound in the drained figs.
Once they are broken up, add the olive oil and season with black pepper, fig poaching liquid, and salt, if necessary.
