Who this list is for

This list is for cooks preparing French pissaladiere flatbread for six people. It’s ideal for anyone hosting a lunch, casual gathering, or appetizer spread with a Provençal twist. If you want to serve something savory with caramelized onions, anchovies, and olives, this is the list you need.

How to use this list

Start by checking your freezer for a sheet of frozen puff pastry. Slice four yellow onions and gather olive oil, fresh thyme, and a bay leaf for the slow-cooked topping. Anchovy fillets and Niçoise olives bring the signature salty punch. You’ll also need a garlic clove, an egg for glazing the pastry, and black pepper. Review your pantry and fridge, then cross off anything you already have so your shopping is focused.

Don’t try to rush the onions—they need to cook low and slow for sweetness. Avoid using regular black olives; Niçoise olives give the right flavor. Don’t use anchovy paste in place of fillets, as the texture will be wrong. Pre-made pizza dough won’t give the same flaky base as puff pastry, so don’t substitute.

What is on this list

Before you go

Check that your puff pastry is still good and that you have a baking sheet for assembly. Plan to shop for fresh onions and olives close to your cooking day. If you’re scaling up or down, adjust the toppings but keep the pastry sheet size in mind. Make sure to let the puff pastry thaw before you start, so it’s ready when the onions are done.
