A coarse-cut tapenade made with Kalamata olives, figs and mint. Kalamata olives are naturally rich in polyphenols, compounds studied for their antioxidant properties. The addition of fig brings natural fruit sugars and dietary fibre, while mint contributes essential oils such as menthol which have been traditionally used for digestion. Tapenades like this one are rooted in Mediterranean cuisine, where olives have been cultivated for thousands of years and valued not just as food but also as sources of oil and trade.
