SCALLION AND CELERY QUICHE
I've written before that I consider celery an underrated vegetable, capable of contributing nuance and texture to a dish. But it would have never occurred to me to have it as one of the main vegetables in a quiche if I hadn't heard the restaurant critic Jonathan Gold discussing a tarte au céleri that he'd had at Church & State in downtown Los Angeles, a sort of tarte flambée in which celery, celery root and apples stood in for the traditional onions and bacon. I figured if it worked so well in that dish, it could also in a quiche. It does.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat and add scallions and celery. Cook, stirring, until celery is just tender, about 5 minutes. Add a generous pinch of salt, the garlic and thyme, and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the parsley. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
- Beat together egg yolks and eggs in a medium bowl. Set tart pan on a baking sheet to allow for easy handling. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush bottom of the crust with some of the beaten egg and place in oven for 5 minutes.
- Add salt (I use 1/2 teaspoon), pepper, and milk to remaining eggs and whisk together.
- Spread scallion and celery mixture in an even layer in the crust. Stir together cheeses and sprinkle evenly on top. Very slowly pour the egg custard over the filling. If your tart pan has low edges, you may not need all of it to fill the shell, and you want to avoid the custard spilling over. Place quiche, on baking sheet, in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until set and just beginning to color on the top. Remove from oven and allow to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Crust: Pulse flour and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Whisk together egg and yolk with ice water. Add to flour mixture and pulse until moist crumbs start to form (no longer). Transfer mixture to a piece of plastic wrap and, using wrap and your hands, form into a disk (or 2 disks, if making 2 quiches in pie plates). Refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
- Let sit at room temperature until pliable, then roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to a 14-inch round. Fit into a 9-inch springform pan, folding and pressing sides to an even thickness. (Or roll out 2 disks to 11-inch rounds and fit into 8- or 9-inch pie plates.)
- Trim edge of dough flush with top of springform pan. (If using pie plates, fold edges of dough under; crimp as desired.) Wrap in plastic; freeze at least 30 minutes and up to 3 days. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Line crust with parchment; fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake, with a baking sheet on rack below, 20 minutes; remove paper and beans. Bake until golden, 12 to 15 minutes (8 to 10 minutes, for pie plates). Let cool.
- Reduce oven to 375 degrees. Whisk eggs until smooth, then whisk in remaining ingredients until well combined.
- Pour custard mixture into cooled crust, stopping just short of top (if making in 2 pie plates, divide evenly between crusts). You may not need to use all of custard; be careful not to overfill.
- Top with scallions and bacon. Bake 10 minutes at 375 degrees, then about 1 hour at 325 degrees. Let cool about 1 hour before serving.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh scallions and celery will give your quiche the best flavor. If you can't find fresh scallions, you can use a small onion instead.
- Don't overcook the vegetables: The scallions and celery should be softened but still have a little bit of crunch. Overcooking them will make them mushy.
- Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in quiche, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that you enjoy. A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese are both good choices.
- Don't overbeat the eggs: Overbeating the eggs will make the quiche tough. Just whisk them until they are combined.
- Bake the quiche until it is set: The quiche is done baking when the center is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. If the quiche is not set, it will be runny and difficult to serve.
Conclusion:
Scallion and celery quiche is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for brunch, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With its creamy filling, flaky crust, and fresh scallion and celery flavor, this quiche is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
