This favorite pupu (Hawaiian appetizer) is from the Hawaiian Electric Company's cookbook called A Taste To Remember. It is always a hit at potlucks and parties. Many folks use the bread for dipping, but I have seen just as many people fill a bowl and eat it with a spoon! It makes enough for an army (or NAVY!).
Ingredients:
2 (14 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
2 fresh tomatoes (diced)
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup chopped kalamata olive
1/3 cup feta cheese
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
roasted garlic sourdough bread or plain sourdough bread
Directions:
1. Bring the diced tomatoes and fresh tomatoes to a boil then remove from heat.
2. Mix remaining ingredients into cooked tomatoes then chill.
3. Slice bread lengthwise and then into serving size pieces about 1/2 inch thick.
4. Place in foil, loosely open at the top with crust side up
5. bake in oven at 300 degrees until out crust is crisp.
6. Serve crispy bread with the dip!
