This delicious pizza-like dish can easily pass for a French one, but it actually has German roots. Prepare your “Flammkuche” with a thin crust, which will hold the mouth-watering buttery mixture of crispy bacon and savory onion. But once topped with a nutmeg-flavored creamy mixture, this “Kuche” is truly irresistible.
