I bought a jar of whole Nutmeg just because of your videos. I only intended to buy a small container, which had only 2 nuts in it I think...but...they were out. So, I just bought the big jar that has more like 6 nuts in it. Yeah....I've made your pumpkin pie cheesecake 3 times now, and your mac and cheese recipe twice, and I've barely used half of ONE nutmeg. This jar is going to last me for the rest of my life. It's probably going in my Will.

There's a local (maybe nationwide?) tradition here [in Germany] in every autumn for a short period, when markets open on the streets and offer local wines and especially Flammkuchen - the combination of a cold Federweisser and a succulent Flammkuchen is unbeatable.

I was privileged to dine on the real version of this in Strasbourg, France, way back in 1979 - and I have never forgotten it. It is utterly sublime. Thank you, Chef John, for providing us a reasonable facsimile.

Should be mentioned that because of the intense heat from wood ovens (Flammkuchen used to be a "test" for the heat of the oven) it was and actually still is quite common to see the crust not only go golden brown but even have bits of the crust slightly charred even, or at the very least go to a dark dark brown. Not only leads to super crispness of the edges (and contrast to the slightly less crip bit with the filling on top) but a very interesting flavour profile. So from what I can see on the video, that crust could have gone a slight bit longer ;) As for the name, since the Alsace has been swapped back and forth between Germany and France over the years there is a lot of shared culture in the region, including both the German and French language and Germanic dialects. Kind of similar how along the Belgium border to Germany there is a healthy German speaking community with close relations across the border.
@BLY997 жыл бұрын
The reason it has a french name is because although Alsace used to be German, it is now part of France. Most of the popluation is originally from Switzerland just to make it even more complicated.

In Germany it's called originally "Flammkuchen", which is translated to Tarte Flambée.
@Aurianinouuu7 жыл бұрын
Tarte flambée isn't really made out of pizza dough, a non-rising dough is used instead, between pizza and azym bread. It makes the bottom truly thin and crispy. And we usually don't pre-cook the onions and the bacon - since everyone at the table is sharing the tarte flambée, we all have an onion breath in the end so no one cares. But thanks for popularising this staple dish of my region !

It might be a Franco-german awesomeness that brought this baby to life, considering that the Alsace changed its territorial belonging to one or the other six times within the past 200 years. Hence the French name in English; German name is Flammkuchen :)
