SWABIA, OH SWABIA!

Swabia is a mountainous region in southwestern Germany that borders both Switzerland and France.  It produced this.


That, hungry readers, is an onion, bacon and caraway tart.  Let's view it from the Oddball helicopter.


Actually Swabia only produced the recipe.  This particular tart was produced by SWMBO.  It is delicious.


It contains copious quantities of onions and bacon and caraway seeds.  And some butter.  And egg yolks.  And cream.

Is it any wonder that I obey a woman who can create this kind of culinary masterpiece?  Swabia, gastronomy, SWMBO . . . you have my heart.

  4. Godsey - I'll email the recipe. Caraway is used in rye bread and lots of German recipes.

    Lowandslow - You should have tasted it!

    Rouchswalwe - Danke! Taking your advice! ;^/
