French Cooking Classes with Chef Christophe - TARTE FLAMBÉE

creme fraiche

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sour cream

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

gruyere cheese

🥗Healthier: emmental cheese

💰Cheaper: mozzarella

Emmental provides a similar flavor at a lower cost.

bacon

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

💰Cheaper: pancetta

Turkey bacon is leaner while still adding a smoky flavor.

flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients.

Wash your hands before starting.

For the dough, combine 200 grams of pizza flour, 11 grams of dry yeast, a pinch of sugar, a pinch of salt, 100 mils of olive oil, and 120 mils of water.

Make a well in the flour on the table and add the dry ingredients into the well, keeping the yeast separate from the sugar and salt.

Combine the ingredients using a spatula, then use your fingers to mix until a smooth dough forms.

Knead the dough until it no longer sticks to the table, about 5 minutes.

Let the dough rest for 15 minutes.

Dust the table with flour and roll out the dough into a rectangular shape to fit your tray.

Slice red onions finely and prepare smoked bacon into small pieces.

Place the sliced onions and bacon on top of the rolled-out dough.

Preheat the oven to 220-250°C (428-482°F).

Bake the tart in the hot oven for about 5 to 6 minutes until done.
