How To Make Zwiebelkuchen –In Germany, there is a tradition
takes place during every fall season when the winemakers open a basinwirtschaft
in the barn serving green wine with Zwiebelkuchen for very cheap price. One of
the indications that a household started to serve is when there is a straw
broom hanging over the doorway. This dish contains onions and bacon which I
think are the key ingredients to give reasons why it is best served with wine.
To me, the best drink for this dish is the red wine because I am not much of a
drinker. In this recipe, we are going to use caraway seed but you can do some
experiments by replacing it with anis or sesame seeds, even peanuts will do the
trick. Here is how to make Zwiebelkuchen:

2 kilograms of sweet onions (sliced)
