Pissaladière originates from the Provence region of France and is a savoury tart made with a base of bread dough, topped with caramelised onions, anchovies, and black olives. It is similar to a pizza but typically lacks cheese and focuses on the rich, sweet, and salty flavours of the onions and anchovies. The name comes from “pissalat”, a Provençal condiment made from puréed anchovies and herbs.
