1. 1

   * The olive pestos are also called olivada (black) and oliverde (green), and I buy them at a local deli (brand name San Remo). Dean & Deluca also carries them, and I'm pretty sure they do mail order (over the Internet even, I believe). You can also make the pestos yourself; I have a recipe that says 2 cups of olives to 1/4 cup olive oil; 1 tsp thyme in the black pesto and 1/2 tsp black pepper in the green. (You can also throw in anchovies and capers if you want.) Process to a smooth paste.
