THE FLAMEABLE CAKE – FLAMMKUCHEN

by Kristin

The flame with the cake, an experiment with success.

A dish what came to life while exploring the Alsace area and testing an oven for its temperature. Pretty cool experiment.

I hear you thinking this is a mini pizza, not quite. Its more than that. The savory taste of ingredients make it light to digest and are defined in the combination of their toppings. More like a gourmet kind of cake I would say.

Here is what we need to make it from scratch.

Ingredients:

 

the dough:

  • flower (2 cups)

  • yeast (0,5 sachet)

  • water (1 cup luke warm )

  • salt

 

Add the flour mix with water as written on the packaging. Let it do its magic to rise on a warm place like a heater for 10-15 minutes.

 

the bacon & leak version:

  • creme fresh

  • leak

  • bacon

  • red onions

  • olive oil & salt

  • parsley

 

the pear & blue cheese version:

  • creme fresh

  • a fresh ripe peer

  • blue cheese

  • olive oil & salt

  • parsley

 

Add all ingredients besides the parsley for each version in order on the thin rolled out in a small cake dough and heat it up in the oven for about 10 minutes. Keep an eye on them when they are gold and crunchy because they bake fast.

A perfect dish for a great night with friends and a good glass of wine or just as a snack in between that savory hunger.

Have fun experimenting with different toppings and variations.
