Don´t call it Pizza - It´s a FLAMMKUCHEN!
Flammkuchen, literally 'Flaming Cake', is one of France and Germany's favourite foods when having a glass of wine or champagne or even a beer or a cool drink.
That crunchy , steaming and hot out of the oven delicacy has its Origin in the wine region Alsace Lorraine’, a region that has been part of Germany several times over the last centuries but is nowadays one of France's smallest states, which lies along the West bank of the Upper River Rhine .
Originally, Tarte Flambé was invented out of necessity. Hundreds of years ago , when the farmers had to look after their cattle in the mountains in winter, they had flour , water, dried meet and of course milk from the cows which they made their Sour Creme from. From those simple ingredient they baked over hot flames a thin ‘Tarte which we now know as “Tart Flambé” or “Flammkuchen”
