Pissaladière is a traditional French pie from sunny Provence. Its history dates back to the Middle Ages when locals prepared it with simple yet rich-flavored ingredients. Crispy pastry, caramelized onions, savory anchovies, and tender eggs create a harmonious blend of salty and sweet flavors. Added cumin gives a refined spicy note, while pecorino cheese adds richness. This dish is perfect for dinner with friends, accompanied by a glass of white wine. Pissaladière can be served as a main dish or as an appetizer on a festive table. Its aroma and taste transport you to cozy French streets filled with warmth and gastronomic charm.
