Etymology
The etymology of the word seems to originate from the Latin piscis "fish",[8] which in turn originated pissalat, the name of an anchovy paste[9] (via peis salat, "salted fish" in older Ligurian and Niçard).[10]
Description
The dough is usually a bread dough thicker than that of the classic pizza margherita, and the traditional topping usually consists of caramelised (almost pureed) onions, black olives, and anchovies (whole, and sometimes also with pissalat).[9]
