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 1h6m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup hot water
½ cup cold water
1 cup chopped scallions, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup butter, softened
1 ½ teaspoons vegetable oil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Place flour in a bowl. Add hot water slowly in a steady stream, mixing well after each addition. Add cold water; mix until no dry spots remain. Knead dough lightly by hand until a ball is formed. Place dough in an oiled resealable plastic bag; seal the bag and let dough rest for 30 minutes.
  • Place scallions in a bowl; season with salt and pepper.
  • Roll dough out onto a floured work surface into a thin rectangle using a rolling pin. Spread butter all over; sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper. Spread scallions over the dough, leaving top edge of the dough empty. Roll dough up carefully from the opposite edge, keeping scallions in place and pulling dough a little with every roll to make it tight.
  • Cut the roll into 3- to 4-inch-long pieces by hand; pinch and seal both ends. Lightly flatten each piece into a circular pancake.
  • Heat a nonstick saucepan with oil; cook pancakes until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Crush 2 sides of the pancakes with spoons or ladles until flaky.

Tips:

  • When rolling out the pie dough, be sure to flour the surface and rolling pin well. This will help to prevent the dough from sticking.
  • Bake the pie in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the crust is cooked through and the filling is hot and bubbly.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the filling from oozing out.
