Preparation
Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl, and stir with a rubber spatula. Serve immediately with crackers, or cover, refrigerate, and let flavors marinate. I usually refrigerate at least a couple of hours before serving to bring out the flavors. Also, seasoning measurements are not exact. Adjust to your taste. Enjoy.
