Edamame Flammkuchen

I am a big fan of Flammkuchen (OR Flammekueche), that is sometimes called ‘German Pizza’. Just like ‘Italian Pizza’, toppings can be anything. Today I used Edamame Beans (Young Soy Beans). In Melbourne where I live, Frozen Edamame Beans are widely available even from ordinary supermarket stores. This is a Vegetarian version of Flammkuchen and it was yummy.

heaped cup Plain Flour OR Bread Flour *about 1 & 1/4 cups

1 teaspoon

Baking Powder *optional

1 pinch

1/2 cup

Warm Water

1 tablespoon

Olive Oil *OR Vegetable Oil

100 g

2-3 teaspoons

1/8 teaspoon

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

If Edamame Beans are not salted, add 1/8 teaspoon Salt and mix well, then set aside.

* Step 2

Combine Flour and Salt in a bowl. Add Warm Water and Olive Oil. Mix until a dough comes together. Knead, adding more Flour if required, until smooth and elastic.

* Step 3

Divide the dough into 2 portions if you prefer. Roll out or flatten the dough into a thin oblong or round, and place on a baking tray(s), lined with baking paper if necessary.

* Step 4

Mix Sour Cream (OR Creme Fraiche) and 1 pinch Salt, add Wholegrain Mustard and mix roughly, spread on the base, scatter Onion and Edamame Beans evenly, and sprinkle with ground Black Pepper.

* Step 5

Bake in a hot oven over 200℃ until nicely browned and edges are crispy. Today I baked it at 240℃ for 10 minutes. *Note: Make sure the baking surface is hot to achieve crispy bottom.
