INSTRUCTIONS
Recipe by: Panini, Bruschette, Crostini; Viana La Place Place tuna, butter,
and anchovies in a blender or food processor and blend until mixture is
smooth and fluffy. Transfer spread to a small bowl. Stir in the black olive
pesto and capers. Trim the crusts from the bread. Spread the mixture on
half of the bread slices. If desired, cut the tramezzini in squares of
triangles, and serve with before-dinner drinks. Makes 4 tramezzini or 24
appetizers. Note: Canned tuna, always packed in olive oil, is used often in
Italy. It is a long-standing custom to preserve it in oil, since at one
time fresh tuna w as only available seasonally. Format Norma Wrenn
