This darling little pizza is free from 5 p.m. to midnight at the Brasserie Jo bar. It's an Alsatian-style pie, about 4 1/2 inches across, made with fromage blanc, bacon, and onion; spinach with Gruyere cheese and garlic; or smoked salmon with capers and chives (above). The fromage blanc pizza, with soft white cheese, is the one made on wood-burning stoves all over Alsace. One winter, I ate 25 of them in one week, all near and around Colmar, hoping to figure out how to make them at home. They were served at nice restaurants, cafes, even roadside spots. At the end of the two dozen samples -- and these were not saucer-sized, but rather plate-sized -- I happened by a well-stocked shop with a stack of pizzas in the window. No wonder all the restaurants were offering them! They were buying them off the French version of the Sysco truck. Posted by Sheryl Julian at 05:34 PM
