Olive Tapenade Recipe – What Is Tapenade?

http://www.cookingrecipestv.com/ – When it comes to bread with dinner it is always olive tapenade for me. No Butter. No olive oil (out of the bottle anyway) – tapenade!

Want to know the definition of tapenade? This “how to video recipe” explains what tapenade is and how to make it. Tapenade originates from the south of France where it is used as a condiment often in place of butter or olive oil. Ingredients often include olives, herbs, lemon juice, capers as well as anchovies. My version is simple and easy to make with the help of a food processor and contains only five ingredients:

- olives
- garlic
- Italian parsley
- olive oil
- fresh ground black pepper

Enjoy,
Chef Brian

    OG. STOP! The OG in Baton Rouge Louisiana SUCKS! Truely the food SUCKED. The salad, I could have gone to wal-mart and spent no more than three bucks for some cheap salad. The salad was cheap iceburg lettuce, a few olives, shreeded carrots the size of magots and as BLAND as paper. I had to ask for olive oil, DUHHHH. And the bread sticks, well the were TASTELESS. The whole meal was GARBAGE. So you Olive Garden. Never again.

    Yes, it is different from regular parsley. About the same price, most chef’s would lean toward cooking with the “Italian” variety.
