Smoked Olive Tapenade and other stuff

[cowgirl]

Thank you so much for the kind words and points Jay, Alex, Lou and Buddy!

Jay, thank you!!

Alex, that is a pie pan with the honey in it. I stir everything about every hour. I've always stored it in glass jars, but I bet the original container would work fine.

Lou, it's always good to see you. Hope you are having a nice summer. :)

Buddy, I'll be ready to head your way this winter when it cools off down there.

Did you only smoke the olives for the tapenade?  I believe that's what you said but just making sure. Im going to make it friday along with some other things..  We are going to have a few friends over and just make a bunch of H'ors deurves.  Got any other great suggestions? For smoking Almonds or any other nuts, do you buy the roasted ones already and just smoke em' or what's the trick there (that you would normally do)?.

That looks so awesome!  It's been awhile since I've had any tapenade.  I've only had in from a jar & loved it, but I now must try to make it from scratch(smoked, of course!)

Yee-haw!

I buy raw almonds and hot smoke them at 225. They will get roasted and smoked at the same time. Search Smoked Almonds up top and you'll find lots of methods and recipes.
