Can you make bread with olive paste ahead of time?
You can assemble bread with olive paste ahead of time, but it is best eaten soon after preparation. Moist fillings such as tomato can make the bread soggy, so pack them separately and add them just before eating.
Should bread with olive paste be made with green or black olives?

What is Bread with Olive Paste?
Bread with Olive Paste brings together bread and a spread made from crushed olives. The paste has a concentrated, savoury flavour, and homemade versions may include olive oil or seasonings. It makes a quick snack or light meal, and fits the simple Mediterranean-style habit of pairing bread with olive-based spreads.
The bread is soft and filling, while the olive paste adds a salty, fruity note. Most of the carbohydrates come from the bread; the olives contribute fat and much of the distinctive flavour. Serve it for breakfast or lunch, or alongside a salad for a light meal. Add sliced tomato, cucumber or leafy greens for freshness, and use a thinner layer of paste if you want a less rich bite.
