GERMAN ZWIEBELKUCHEN (ONION PIE)



German Zwiebelkuchen (Onion Pie) image

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!

Time 2h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup lukewarm water
¼ cup butter
2 ¼ pounds onions, cut into thin rings
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups sour cream
1 cup milk
4 eggs
ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch caraway seeds, or to taste

Steps:

  • Mix flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and yeast in a large bowl. Stir in olive oil and about 3/4 cup water until mixture comes together in a ball of dough. Turn dough out on a lightly floured surface. Gradually add remaining 1/4 cup water while kneading dough; continue kneading until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
  • Place dough in a large lightly-oiled bowl and turn to coat. Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place , about 30 minutes.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onions and 1 teaspoon salt until tender and translucent, about 30 minutes; stir often so onions do not brown. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  • Roll dough out on a floured surface to create a thin crust; transfer dough to prepared baking sheet. Poke several holes in the dough with a fork and roll edges up slightly to create a rim.
  • Spread cooled onions over crust. Whisk sour cream, milk, eggs, and ground black pepper in a bowl; pour over onions. Sprinkle with caraway seeds.
  • Bake in preheated oven until golden brown and eggs are set, 30 to 45 minutes. Serve warm.

  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the onions. Cook them in batches if necessary, so that they can brown properly.

  • Bake the Zwiebelkuchen until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
