DEEP-DISH HAM QUICHE WITH HERB AND ASPARAGUS SALAD

Steps:

• To make the pastry: combine the flour, salt, and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Add the butter and mix with a pastry blender or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Beat the egg yolk and ice water in a small bowl to blend, add it to the pastry. Work it in to bind the dough until it holds together without being too wet or sticky. Squeeze a small amount together, if it is crumbly, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Form the dough into a disk and wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Sprinkle the counter and a rolling pin lightly with flour. Roll the dough out into a 14-inch circle about 1/4-inch thick. Carefully roll the dough up onto the pin (this may take a little practice) and lay it inside a 9-inch springform pan. Press the dough firmly into the bottom and sides so it fits tightly; trim the excess dough around the rim. Place the pan on a sturdy cookie sheet so it will be easier to move in and out of the oven, this quiche is pretty heavy.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• To make the filling: Heat a skillet over medium-low heat, coat the pan with oil, and add the onions. Slowly cook the onions, stirring, until they caramelize and release their natural sugars. Add a couple of tablespoons of water to help the onions break down, if needed. Toss in the ham, cook, stirring, for about 10 minutes to get some color on it. Remove from heat. In a large bowl, beat the eggs until frothy, pour in the cream; season with salt and pepper. Arrange the caramelized onions and ham over the bottom of the crust and carefully pour in the cream and egg mixture; the filling should be about 1-inch from the top of the pan. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to bake for 15 minutes or until the quiche is set, puffy, and jiggles slightly. Remove to a wire rack and let cool for 30 minutes. In the meantime make the asparagus salad.
• To make the asparagus salad: In a large pot of boiling salted water, blanch the asparagus for 4 minutes, or until they are just crisp-tender. Drain the asparagus, transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking, and drain well. Slice the asparagus into 1/2-inch pieces and put them in a mixing bowl. Add the Parmesan and herbs, drizzle the herb and asparagus salad with olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, season with salt and pepper. Toss gently to combine.
• Loosen the quiche from the sides of the pan by running a thin metal spatula around the inside rim. Carefully unmold the ring, and transfer the quiche (with the bottom base) to a serving plate. Cut it into wedges, drizzle with a little olive oil, and a few turns of freshly ground black pepper. Garnish with the asparagus salad on top.

Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and bake until potatoes are fork-tender, about 30 minutes. Let cool about 10 minutes.
• Reduce oven to 325 degrees. Whisk eggs until smooth, then whisk in milk, cream, and 3/4 teaspoon salt until well combined. Pour egg mixture into crust, stopping just short of top (do not overfill). Sprinkle herbs on top. Bake until center is just set, about 40 minutes. (If crust edges are getting too dark, tent with foil.) Let cool about 1 hour; serve room temperature or chilled.

VEGAN QUICHE WITH MUSHROOMS AND SHALLOTS AND A HERB CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Start by preparing a cake tin by greasing with oil or Earth Balance type spread, dust with flour well.
• Combine all the crust ingredients in a large bowl. You'll likely need to add quite a bit extra flour to get a soft, kneadable dough. Roll it out on a floured surface to about 12" round. Drag the bottom of it through corn meal then position in the cake pan (I usually place the tin upside down on the dough, on a chopping board, and then flip the entire thing over). The dough is quite sturdy and elastic if you work with it right away.
• Fix your edges and then brush the crust lightly with oil. Poke a few holes in the bottom and then blind bake for 10 minutes. You'll want to protect the edges with some strips of parchment or foil, otherwise it will burn.
• Next start on the filling by sauteing the shallots, mushrooms and bell pepper in the olive oil over medium heat. Let them get nice and caramelized, but watch not to burn. Add in the cumin, red pepper flakes, parsley and lemon juice and set aside off the heat.
• Using a blender or food processor whiz together until smooth the silken tofu, arrowroot powder, S&P, soy milk and nutritional yeast, nuts and agave nectar. It should be a thick milky white mixture with no lumps. Fold into the sauteed veg and check seasoning. You may wish to add extra fresh parsley here. Fold in the grated vegan mozza the pour the entire mixture into the crust.
• Mix the topping ingredients of oil, vinegar and agave together and then pour over top, getting it as even as you can without mixing it inches Sprinkle with the last 2 tbsp of vegan mozza (or more if you like). You can also add a few lemon slices to the top before baking.
• Bake at 375 for 45 minutes or until top is brown and edges are firm. Keep those strips of parchment or foil handy and use again once the edges are browning up.
• If the centre still seems soft that's probably OK, it will firm up as it cools - you should let it cool for one hour.
