   • Start by caramelizing the pickled shallots. In a frying pan, melt the butter over low heat.
   • Add the shallots and sauté them until golden brown for a few minutes.
   • Stir in the sugar and continue to stir occasionally with a wooden spoon, being careful not to let the sugar stick to the bottom of the pan.
   • As the sugar melts, add the soy sauce to infuse the shallots with flavor.
   • Let the mixture simmer over moderate heat for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shallots are deeply caramelized and tender.

2. Assemble the Olive Pastries:

   • While the shallots are caramelizing, prepare the olive pastries by laying out each pastry sheet.
   • On top of each pastry sheet, sprinkle some Raspadura cheese, allowing the delicate texture to complement the caramelized onions.

   • Once the shallots are ready, spoon them generously onto each olive pastry sheet.
   • Garnish with a delicate drizzle of fresh chives to add a burst of color and flavor.
