GERMAN ZWIEBELKUCHEN (ONION PIE)

Zwiebelkuchen is an onion pie from Swabia, in south-central Germany. It is a special time of year, in the fall, when the mom & pop winemakers will open a BasinWirtschaft in their barn or garage. They serve the new wine, fresh zwiebelkuchen, and perhaps some wurst, for a minimal fee. A few tables are set up, and they are open when they have time to serve. To indicate they are serving, they will hang a straw broom over the doorway. The combination of the onions and the 'green' wine can have explosive consequences later on!

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a jelly-roll pan or large pizza pan with prepared dough, making sure dough extends up sides of pan.
  • Saute onion in a skillet until translucent and pour cooked onion into a large mixing bowl. Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, chop and add to onion; mix well.
  • Stir in sour cream. Beat eggs enough to break up yolks, then mix in to pie mixture. Add flour to thicken mixture (onions will create a lot of water), then add salt. Mix well and pour mixture into prepared pan. Sprinkle top with caraway seed.
  • Bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until onions start to turn golden brown on top.

  • Add the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt into a large bowl. Now add the lukewarm milk and the soft butter and knead the dough with the spiral dough hooks of your mixer or with your hands.
  • Once the dough forms a ball, place a lid or kitchen towel over the bowl and place it in a warm spot without draft to let the dough rise for approx. 60 minutes.
  • In the meantime, line the bottom of your 10-inch springform cake pan with parchment paper and spray/brush the sides with oil or butter.
  • Once the dough has risen, put some flour down on a smooth surface and roll out the dough so it is slightly larger than the base of the springform pan. Then place the dough into the pan, make sure it fits well with your fingers, and form a high edge (for the crust) approximately 1.5-inch up the wall of the pan. Set the pan aside.
