Tarte Flambee: Alsatian pizza on sale at the supermarket

As I've been writing in many of the journals, I can find the wildest things at Carrefour. Just the other day my Russian friend invited some friends over for a card game and I brought over this thin-crusted pizza, tarte flambee (or flammekuche in German), which you bake fresh in your oven.

It's a think pastry crust on which you put fresh cream, onions, cheese, and lardons (chewy, but not overly salty bacon) on top.

I've written about this before in the past and in fact our family tried this in Frankfurt, I believe. It's light and filling and the mix of the onions, with the cream, the cheese and the fatty bacon ... enough richness to last you for a week!
