Remove the stems from the figs, cut into quarters, cover with water in a small saucepan and simmer for about 15 minutes, then pour off the water.
Chop all ingredients in a blender or with a hand blender, but not very finely. If necessary, add a little salt and pepper to the tapenade. Be sure to try it beforehand!
Arrange the tapenade in a bowl and eat with baguette and cheese. Or as a spread without cheese.
In autumn I also do the tapenade with fresh figs and extra fresh dates.
The tapenade can be kept in a closed glass in the refrigerator and covered with a little olive oil for about 2 - 3 weeks.
