Baeckeoffe
This traditional Alsatian casserole features layers of thinly sliced potatoes, onions, carrots, and various meats, all slow-cooked together in white wine and herbs. It's a hearty and flavorful one-pot meal perfect for a cold day. The long cooking time tenderizes the meats and melds the flavors beautifully.
