Traditional Flammkuchen - Tarte Flambée

This is a speciality of the historic regions of Alsace.

Recipe for 2 servings.

Ingredients:
250g flour
125ml lukewarm water
½ tsp salt
2 tbs oil

Method
10 min kneading, until you get a smooth dough.
Let the dough rest for 15-30 minutes.

Meanwhile you can prepare the topping:

Traditional Flammkuchen:
Crème fraîche (30% fat), salt, pepper
Thin sliced white onions
Bits of “speck” or smoked bacon.
After baking, decorate with chives.

Topping for vegetarian version:
Crème fraîche (30% fat), salt, pepper
Thin sliced (red) onions
Baby spinach
Feta cheese
Olive oil

You can vary with any toppings you like, as long as you keep the crème fraîcheas a base, and be generous.
Salmon, asparagus, goat cheese with honey, mushrooms, grilled vegetables, etc.

Bake in a pre-heated oven at the highest possible temperature (we did on 250C = 480F)
Depending on the oven, between 7 and 10 minutes.

Beautiful work, you deserve many more subscribers. Too many food channels waste time with too much narration and hosts tend to yell excessively. But this is very soothing to watch. When I try it I might add a bit of Gruyère on top.

das Anfangsbild ist genial !
Ich liebe es, wenn ein Flammkuchen sich im Ofen verformt [und leidet :-)] und sich die lecker dünne Knusperkruste wellenförmig in der Hitze windet
nothing can stand up to this !

J'adore la flammekuche! J'ai découvert ce la dans un voyage en Alsace il y a 25 ans. Je ne savais pas que c'était aussi facile à faire. Merci!

I think I'm doing the vegetarian recipe with bacon 😉

[higherandhigher]

Looks delicious.
At what temperature and how long in the oven?

[andystone]

hallo Alin !
eine Frage noch: nimmst Du 00 Mehl, wie der Italiener für die Pizza oder doch 405, wie wir es alle kennen ?
wie vorsichtig Du den Speck schneidest, . . . als wolltest Du ihm nicht weh tun ! Er kommt doch sowieso in den (bösen heißen) Ofen

I followed the recipe, but I got a big bubble that displaced the toppings. Any tips? Should I poke it with a fork after rolling?

Olivenöl sollte dort verwendet werden, wo es hingehört - in der mediterrane Küche. Ansonsten sehr ansprechendes Video und ein Rezept, das man nach sich merken sollte.

Question: is it traditional to not leaven the bread?

[thomasheberling]

Sour cream and horseradish for the sauce is better :)
