Flammkuchen, also known as Tarte Flambée, originated in the Alsace region, which has historically shifted between French and German control. It was initially a farmer's dish, a way to test the heat of wood-fired ovens before baking bread. The baker would quickly bake a thin layer of dough to see if the oven was hot enough, and this early version was likely quite simple.

Función Premium
Flammkuchen offers a delightful combination of savory, smoky, and creamy flavors, balanced by the slight sharpness of onions and the crispy texture of the crust.
The base flavor comes from the crème fraîche, providing a creamy and slightly tangy foundation. The bacon (or lardons) contributes a smoky, salty richness. Onions add a sharp, pungent counterpoint that cuts through the richness of the dairy and meat. The thin, crispy crust provides a neutral base and textural contrast.

Thin Crust is Key
Roll the dough as thinly as possible for a truly crispy crust. A pasta machine can be helpful for achieving uniform thinness.
Hot Oven is Essential
Bake the Flammkuchen in a very hot oven (450-500°F or 230-260°C) for a short amount of time to ensure the crust becomes crispy and the toppings are cooked through without burning.
Crème Fraîche Substitute
If you cannot find crème fraîche, you can use a mixture of sour cream and heavy cream as a substitute. Adjust the proportions to achieve the desired consistency and tanginess.
Variations are Welcome
Feel free to experiment with different toppings, such as mushrooms, cheese, or herbs, to create your own unique Flammkuchen.
