Preparation method
- Melt Flora Plant in a saucepan over low heat. Sift the flour over the bowl of a stand mixer and add ½ tsp salt and sugar, mix the ingredients together. Measure lukewarm water into a measuring cup and add the melted Flora Plant and the yeast. Pour this mixture into the bowl and knead for 10 minutes until a smooth dough has formed in the shape of a ball.
- Put the dough ball in a bowl, cover with a damp tea towel and set the bowl aside in a dry and warm place for an hour until the dough has doubled in volume. When the dough has risen, preheat the oven to 225°C.
- Peel and cut the hard bottom of the white asparagus and put the asparagus together with the peels and trimmings in a large pan in which they can lie completely flat. Cook the asparagus for 10 minutes in plenty of boiling water with a pinch of salt and put the lid on the pan. Turn off the heat and let the asparagus cook in the pan for another 10 minutes. Remove the asparagus from the pan and halve them lengthwise when they have cooled down.
- Remove the bottom and a piece of the top of the spring onions, then cut them in half lengthwise.
- Roughly chop the dill and mix 2/3 with the crème frache, taste and season with salt and pepper.
- Roll out the dough as thin as possible on a baking tray lined with baking paper and cover with the crème frache mixture. Divide the white asparagus and spring onion over this and bake the flammkuchen for 15-20 minutes until crisp. Remove the flammkuchen from the oven and top with pieces of smoked salmon, capers and the remaining dill. Serve immediately!
