Ingredients
In the Baden-style Panada, we have adapted the traditional Spanish panada to incorporate the unique flavors and ingredients of Baden cuisine. While the original Spanish panada typically uses ingredients like chorizo and paprika, we have replaced them with Baden's renowned Black Forest ham and regional wine. This adaptation adds a distinct smoky flavor and a touch of sweetness to the dish, perfectly complementing the rich and hearty filling. We alse have the original recipe for Panada, so you can check it out.

Preparation
-
1.In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the cold cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
2.Gradually add the ice water, a tablespoon at a time, and mix until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
-
3.In a large skillet, heat some oil over medium heat. Add the diced beef or pork and cook until browned. Remove the meat from the skillet and set aside.
-
4.In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent.
-
5.Return the cooked meat to the skillet and add the dried thyme, dried rosemary, diced Black Forest ham, and Baden wine. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Remove from heat and let the filling cool.
-
6.Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
-
7.On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a circle large enough to line a pie dish. Transfer the dough to the pie dish and press it gently into the bottom and sides.
-
8.Pour the cooled filling into the pie crust and spread it evenly.
-
9.Roll out the remaining dough and cut it into strips. Create a lattice pattern on top of the filling by weaving the strips over and under each other.
-
10.Brush the top of the pie with the beaten egg wash.
-
11.Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
-
12.Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
