Kalamata Olive Tapenade

Steemit Iron Chef 2018 Act 01 Round 01

The 2018 Steemit Ironchef challenge is here! This year @progressivechef broke up the contest into 3 seperate 'Acts' consisting of 15 rounds. The special ingredient for Act 1 of Round 1 of the 2018 @steemit-ironchef challenge is the Olive. I instantly thought about a delicious olive spread that was served at a local restaurant. This olive based spread is called Tapenade and makes a tasty treat when served with bread. Here's the recipe in a few simple steps.

Step 3: Add Lemon Juice & Olive Oil

Add the juice from half of a lemon along with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sprinkle in some salt and pepper. As you can see here, I used a blender bottle. It works perfect for this recipe.

So fresh and yummy! So quick and easy! Chapeau!

Sorry I missed this before the payout closes, @jeffjagoe! I didn't realize that tapenades were so simple in their ingredients. I'll have to figure out a wild version for those capers, or maybe something like nasturtium flowerbuds. Thanks!

It’s okay! No need to apologize. This tapenade was very simple and tasty, a perfect addition to any Italian meal.

But at least now I can upvote your comment, so that's about the same thing. :D Happy cooking!
