Instructions:

Tips:
- For the best results, use high-quality smoked salmon and fresh ingredients.
- Chill the tapenade for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

- Rub raw garlic cloves on the warm toast for an extra burst of garlic flavor.
- Garnish with extra chives and a drizzle of olive oil for a professional touch.
- Serve the tapenade immediately after adding the lemon juice to maintain its fresh, vibrant flavor.
