Anshouad is an elegant dish of French cuisine that combines the rich sea notes of anchovies with aromatic garlic and the freshness of lemon juice. Its origin is linked to Provençal traditions where simple yet refined appetizers hold a special place on the table. The taste of anshouad is vibrant and spicy, with a slight heat from chili pepper and a velvety texture achieved through olive oil. This dip is usually served with warm bread that absorbs its rich aroma, making each tasting unforgettable. Anshouad is perfect for an aperitif or as a complement to fresh vegetables, creating a harmony of flavors that can enhance any gathering. Its delicate yet expressive character makes it a favorite choice among Mediterranean gastronomy enthusiasts.
