This is one of the classic Alsatian Christmas cookies called sand bredele. They are named sand bredele because it feels like soft sand when you prepare the dough. It is common to change the taste by adding vanilla, rum, orange, citron, cinnamon or ginger, and you will find them in many different shapes as well.

This homemade classical quiche comes from the French region Lorraine. The pie is easy and simply filled with smoked bacon, it is an open faced pie (as opposed to the typical English closed pies). A green crispy salad fits to it. You can serve it as a lighter dinner or for lunch and it is better served warm.
This is an omelet with potato and mushrooms. It is easy to do and you can add whatever ingredients you like. It is very good to have a salad on the side.
This typical Alsatian homemade hazelnut pie has a thick and crusty pie bottom and needs to rest over the night to get the right consistence. This pie is a good idea as a dessert to end an Alsatian evening after some tarte flambées (which you can also find on this webpage).
