CHERRY TOMATOES AND PECORINO QUICHE



Cherry Tomatoes and Pecorino Quiche image

This recipe, which is perfect for a vegetarian brunch, makes enough for one quiche baked in a nine-inch springform pan, or two quiches baked in eight- or nine-inch pie plates.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 6h

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon grated pecorino (if making 2 quiches, double amounts of toppings)
8 halved cherry tomatoes, cut-side up (if making 2 quiches, double amounts of toppings)
6 large eggs
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons finely grated pecorino
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 large egg, plus 1 large egg yolk
3 tablespoons ice water

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 pecorino and tomatoes. Bake 10 minutes at 375 degrees, then about 1 hour at 325 degrees. Let cool about 1 hour before serving.

2 tsp Dijon mustard or dark spiced mustard
1 1/2 lb fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 medium onion, chopped
8 oz fresh sliced mushrooms
1/4 c cubed butter
2 eggs lightly beaten
2 c shredded cheese, mozzarella, sharp or your favorite
1/4 c fresh parsley minced
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper, I use freshly ground
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp basil
1/4 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp rubbed sage

Steps:

  • 1. Separate crescent dough into eight triangles.
  • 2. Place in an ungreased 9-inch pie plate with the points toward the center.
  • 3. Press onto the bottom and up the sides to form a crust; seal the perforations.
  • 4. Spread with the Dijon mustard and set aside.
  • 5. In a large skillet, saute the asparagus, onion and mushrooms in butter until the asparagus is crisp and tender.
  • 6. In a large bowl combine the remaining ingredients.
  • 7. Stir in the asparagus mixture.
  • 8. Pour into crust.
  • 9. Bake at 375° for 25 to 30 minutes or until a knife inserted near the edge comes out clean.
  • 10. Let it rest for 5 minutes before cutting. Special Note: I always steam my asparagus when I make it so I did so for this recipe. I just added it to the mushrooms and onion once they were tender. I've also made my own crust instead of using the crescents both are very good.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh asparagus. If you only have frozen asparagus, thaw it completely before using.
  • To easily remove the woody ends of the asparagus, hold the asparagus spear at the bottom and bend it until it snaps. The woody end will naturally break off.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the sun-dried tomatoes and asparagus by hand. Just be sure to chop them finely so that they distribute evenly throughout the quiche.
  • Feel free to add other ingredients to your quiche, such as cooked bacon, ham, or cheese. You can also add a pinch of herbs, such as thyme or rosemary, for extra flavor.
  • Quiche is a great make-ahead meal. You can prepare it the night before and bake it in the morning, or you can freeze it for up to 3 months. When you're ready to serve, thaw the quiche overnight in the refrigerator and then bake it according to the recipe instructions.

Conclusion:

Sun-dried tomato and asparagus quiche is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover asparagus. With its flaky crust, creamy filling, and flavorful sun-dried tomatoes and asparagus, this quiche is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
