What does ';Tarte aux quetshces'; and ';Omelette souflée au kirsch'; mean in English?

I am pretty sure this is in French...What does ';Tarte aux quetshces'; and ';Omelette souflée au kirsch'; mean in English?
quetsche = damson, or damask plum.





Tarte aux quetsches is a kind of alsacian plum pudding or plum pie.


take a look at this: http://wonderkitchen.free.fr/Images_rece…





Omelette soufflée au kirsch is a Kirsch Soufflé (custard).


Kirsch is an cherry liquor. I found a recipe here:

Plum tart.


Soufflé omelette (or omelet if you are American) with Kirsch liqueur.





A soufflé omelette is not the same thing as a soufflé! http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/databa…





Quetsches are a special plum. http://www.latartinegourmande.com/2006/0…
Yes, you're right, it's french...


';Tarte aux quetsches'; means to be ';quetsch plum tart';. It's an alsacian fruit and it's like a plum, but a little bigger.





';Omelette soufflee au kirsch'; means to be ';puffed omelette with kirsch';. Kirsch is a cherry alcohol.
I think that's a plum pie (or you may call it a tart...I'd call it a pie. Bottom crust, no top crust) and a souflée with kirsch (cherry alcohol).
The second one is some sort of Souflée probably with kirsch (cherry) liquor. Kirsch is German for cherry but the name of the dish is in French.


Did you mean tarte aux quiche for the first one? I don't know what ';quetshces'; is but tarte is typically an uncovered pie.
