The Flammkueche is a traditional recipe from Alsatian, Lorraine and German cuisine.
If we are used to calling it the tarte flambée, the traditional Flammkueche is a flamed tart.
Because, originally the flammekueche is made with the leftover bread dough that the peasants baked licked by the flames an oven still too hot for the bread. It was decorated with simple ingredients: onions and bacon from the farm.
