Pissaladière Provençale Tart

Pissaladière Provençale

— French Onion & Anchovy Tart

Pissaladière with caramelized onions, anchovy fillets, and Niçoise olives on a rustic tart crust

Rustic, briny, and kissed by the Mediterranean sun — this tart is a Provençal apéritif staple.

Born in Nice and beloved along the Riviera, Pissaladière is the savory tart of summer gatherings. Golden caramelized onions mingle with thyme and bay, layered over a flaky crust and adorned with anchovies and olives. Serve it warm or room temp — as an appetizer, light lunch, or centerpiece for apéro hour. This recipe is part of The Gilded Table: August Edition from Life in Bianca’s Kitchen.

Notes:
For a shortcut, use store-bought puff pastry. Don’t skimp on the onion caramelizing time — it’s the soul of this dish. A quick Dijon swipe under the onions adds depth and zing.
