Author Notes

There are a million recipes out there that are very similar but this is a mixture of three. Two French: Papilles et Pupilles and Journal des Femmes, plus Gabrielle Hamilton's from the NYTimes Cooking. Some are purists and will tell you cheese and onions do not belong here but I prefer them. —Melissa P
