Apparently some bakers use raw onions in filling and some saute. What do you think?
Here is the recipe I’m looking at:
Onion Cake - Zwiebelkuchen
Bread-Yeast
Prep Time: 20 mins | Cook Time: 30 mins
Ingredients:
Dough
250 g flour (= 2 cups)
50 g Butter (a little less than 1/2 stick)
150 ml luke warm warm milk (=1/2 cup and a little more)
1 tsp. yeast
1/4 tsp. salt
Filling
500 g onions (2 1/2 large onions)
50 g Butter (a little less than 1/2 stick)
300 g sour cream (1 1/4 cups)
1 tbsp. flour
3 ct. eggs
75 g bacon, cubed (1/4 cup)
some butter, unsalted
some caraway seed (optional)
Directions:
Add the flour to a large mixing bowl.
Add the warm milk and the soft butter.
Sprinkel the tsp. of yeast onto the warm milk.
Mix shortly, then add the salt.
Mix on high speed for 5 minutes.
Cover with a tea towel and set aside to a warm place to rise.
For the filling cutt and cube the onions. (Keep tissue nearby to dry your tears)
Optional: Use the butter to fry the onions. Otherwise mix onions, butter and sour cream in a bowl.
Scramble the eggs and add the onion mix. Stir.
Add the tbsp. flour and stir again until the mass is nice and smooth.
When the dough has about double the size, you can roll it and cover a baking pan on the bottom and rim.
Add the onion-egg mix.
Sprinkle the bacon on top.
Bake at 425°F for about 30 minutes. Check inbetween and make sure the center is fully cooked before you serve the Onion Cake.
