Smoked Olive Tapenade and other stuff

[stwallace]

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.
