Directions
Fig and Black Olive Tapnade, This is Carrie Brown’s recipe–the tapenade she sold in her Sonoma shop and the recipe for which she included in her Jimtown Store Cookbook Serve this tapnade with slices of baguette that have been lightly brushed with olive oil and toasted in the oven, or smear a layer of it on a sandwich with goat cheese, juicy-ripe summer tomatoes, and lightly dressed arugula Originally posted here by Mean Chef , This recipe is easy to follow and easy to make I fell in love with the PC Fig and Black Olive Tapenade and when they discontinued the product I was looking to make my own This recipe is very similar to that product except for the rosemary I put in a 1/2 tsp but in my opinion it completely ruined the end result The flavour of the rosemany completely overwhelms the delicate balance of fig and black olive So next time I will omit that ingredient!, Real winner recipe, deliciously unique! I did use balsamic vinegar instead of lemon juice and added salf and black pepper Wow, a keeper!
