When they are finally in season, I will go for them too! And fortunately my husband thinks the same way, so asparagus is often on the table here. Very simple with an egg and some ham is already a meal fit for a king, but this two-colored asparagus quiche with salmon was also very tasty. In this recipe we use the dough for a flammkuchen, which is nice and thin. For a festive brunch you can serve this asparagus quiche with white asparagus and asparagus quiche with salmon, both of which are wonderfully creamy and tasty.

As a result, it is not a heavy bite of dough, but more of a very thin bowl that is filled to the brim with vegetables and a soft mix of crème fraîche and mascarpone and egg. We flavor it with my oh so beloved persillade mix.

Where does that flammkuchen come from? From Alsace, but that's in France, isn't it? Yes, that's right, but the national borders have been different in the past. You can clearly see from the houses in Alsace that there has been a German influence with houses with those beautiful dark beams. Created by bakers who rolled out their bread dough very thinly to test the temperature of their often wood-fired ovens.
Flammkuchen is a traditional dish from Alsace, consisting of a thin layer of dough topped with crème fraîche, bacon and onion. The name literally means "flame cake", because the dough was baked in a very hot oven. If the temperature was too high, the dough could catch fire, hence the name “flammkuchen”. The dough is so thin that it almost becomes crispy, just like a cracker.
This makes the Salmon Quiche a light and airy dish, which is much less heavy on the stomach than quiche dough or pizza dough. You can serve flammkuchen as a tasty snack with drinks, or as a complete meal with a nice salad. You can also vary the toppings, for example by adding cheese, mushrooms or apple.
