Pissalat
Pissalat is a traditional French condiment from the sun-kissed region of Nice, celebrated for its bold and savory flavor profile. This delightful spread, brimming with umami richness from anchovies, is perfect for elevating salads, sandwiches, or the iconic Pissaladière—a Provençal pizza adorned with sweet caramelized onions and briny olives. Infused with the aromatic essence of garlic and fresh thyme, Pissalat encapsulates the simplicity and elegance of Mediterranean cuisine, transporting you to the vibrant markets of Nice with every bite. Experience the authentic taste of the French Riviera in your own kitchen!

- Garlic
- 2 cloves, minced
- Olive oil
- 1/2 cup, extra virgin
- Fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons, chopped

Instructions

- Process the mixture until it is smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as necessary to incorporate all ingredients evenly.
