Yield: 6-12 Servings

1 cup putted black olives drained
1 cup water
1/2 cup almonds
10 cloves garlic
1/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1-2 tablespoon tamari sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried sage
1/4 teaspoon pepper or to taste
2 tablespoons garlic grass, chives, or parsley

1. Place all the ingredients except the parsley, in a blender or food processor and process on low speed until very smooth. Stop the machine and scrape the sides of the container with a rubber spatula, if necessary, to make sure all the ingredients are processed.

2. Lightly grease and flour an 8-inch cake pan. Pour the mixture into the pan and bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 45 minutes, or until set. Place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours. Cover if it will be refrigerated for an extended period.

3. To serve, cut the pâté into little squares or diamonds and garnish with a sprinkling of parsley. Accompany with hot, crusty whole-grain bread or crackers.
