The classic tapenade is made with capers and sometimes with anchovies or anchovy paste. I have ventured out and came up with the following tapenade that tastes great on lettuce leafs, or homemade KETO crackers and used as an appetizer. Read my blog "Tapenade: What it is and how to use it."

Notes

Tapenade was originally invented in 1880 by chef Meynier of the restaurant La Maison Dorée in Marseille.The traditional tapenade recipe includes black olives, capers, anchovies, olive oil and possibly garlic and some spices. but this Greek Keto version combines Greek and Spanish olives to give it a unique flavor.
