anchoïade

anchovy sauce or paste served on toast

Anxovada

Also spelled anxovada, anchoïade is made by smashing anchovies with olive oil, capers, garlic, and parsley. It’s often served as an apéritif on toasts along with tapenade and caviar d’aubergine.

Made with the anchois from Collioure, Roussillon is famous for anchoïade, but it’s also popular across the south of France.
