SAVORY HAM AND MUSHROOM QUICHE

This is a really wonderful treat, good for breakfast with muffins and fruit, or lunch or dinner with a nice green salad. I prefer making the shell-less mini quiches. They fit my husband's low-carb needs, and they reheat well in the oven or microwave, making them great quick breakfasts or snacks. They would also work well for a brunch buffet.

Time 35m

Yield 6-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 prebaked sweet tart crust (optional)
1/8 lb deli ham, cut in 1/4 inch cubes (I prefer Boar's Head Sundried Tomato and Rosemary ham)
2 shallots, minced
3 ounces sliced baby portabella mushrooms
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 large eggs
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 -2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
salt and pepper
1/2 cup gruyere or 1/2 cup emmenthaler cheese (plus 1/3 extra if using quiche shell)

Steps:

  • Saute ham, shallots and mushrooms in oil until mushrooms are wilted and shallots are clear.
  • Beat eggs, add cream, salt and pepper.
  • (If not using tart shell, also add 1 T Dijon mustard.) Option 1: Quiche in tart shell.
  • Brush pre-baked tart shell with 2 T Dijon mustard.
  • Scatter over ham mixture, then cover with 1/2 c shredded cheese.
  • Pour over egg mixture, then scatter about 1/3 c shrdded cheese over the entire tart.
  • Bake at 375* for 25-30 minutes, or until custard sets.
  • Let sit before slicing.
  • Option 2: Mini Quiches without pastry shell.
  • Grease 10 muffin cups.
  • Divide ham mixture evenly among cups.
  • Divide half cup cheese evenly among cups.
  • Divide custard mixture evenly among cups.
  • Bake at 375 for 10-15 minutes or until custard is puffed up and browned on top.

Tips:

  • For a crispier crust, pre-bake the quiche crust for 10-12 minutes before adding the filling.
  • Use a variety of cheeses for a more complex flavor. A good combination is Gruyère, Parmesan, and cheddar.
  • Add a splash of white wine or cream to the egg mixture for a richer flavor.
  • Don't overfill the quiche crust. The filling should come about 3/4 of the way up the sides.
  • Bake the quiche until the center is set and the top is golden brown. This usually takes about 45-50 minutes.
  • Let the quiche cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

The Savory Ham and Mushroom Quiche is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover ham and mushrooms. With its creamy filling, flaky crust, and cheesy topping, this quiche is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
