Gratinated Onion Bread

Ingredients

• 0.5 multigrain baguette (alternatively multigrain or pumpkin seed rolls)
• 8 pickled garlic cloves
• 1 silver onion
• 3 sprigs thyme
• 250 g Camembert cheese
• 2 tbsp butter
• Salt
• Pepper

Instructions

1. 1.

   Clean the silver onions, remove the root ends and peel off the skin; let the garlic cloves drain and cut them lengthwise in half. Heat the butter in a small pan and sauté the onions with the garlic until translucent.

2. 2.

   Slice the baguette diagonally into 8-12 slices.

3. 3.

   Cut the Camembert into the same number of slices as the bread. Place the cheese on the bread slices, then spread the onion-garlic mixture over them; wash the thyme, shake dry, tear finely and sprinkle over the loaves.

4. 4.

   Arrange the loaves side by side on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, season with salt and pepper, and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 10‑15 minutes until the cheese melts.

5. 5.

   Serve the bread on wooden platters alongside wine.

6. 6.

   A sweet‑sour pickled pumpkin pairs especially well.
