SPRING VEGETABLE QUICHE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Add the flour and salt to a food processor. Pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse 6-8 times until broken down into pea-sized pieces. Add the water and pulse 8-10 times, until the dough comes together. Turn the dough out onto a clean surface and shape into a disc. Tightly wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes
• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
• On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to a circle about ⅛-inch thick. Roll the dough onto the rolling pin and gently transfer to an 8-inch pie dish. Press the dough flush against the dish. Trim any excess dough around the edges. Fold the edges of dough back underneath itself, then crimp using an index finger knuckle on one hand and the thumb and index finger on the other hand.
• Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 10-15 minutes, until the crust is beginning to brown around the edges. Remove the crust from the oven and carefully lift out the parchment paper and baking beans.
• Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork and return to the oven for another 3-5 minutes, until the bottom is beginning to brown. Remove from the oven and set on a rack to cool while you make the filling.
• Fill a large, high-walled skillet with water and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Once simmering, season the water generously with salt. Prepare an ice bath in a large bowl and set nearby.
• Blanch the asparagus in the simmering water for 30-60 seconds, until bright green and tender. Transfer to the ice bath to cool for 1-2 minutes, then drain and let dry on a paper towel or kitchen towel-lined baking sheet.
• Reserve 8-10 spears of asparagus. Cut the rest into 1-inch pieces.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, eggs, heavy cream, black pepper, salt, and nutmeg. Add the asparagus pieces and 2 tablespoons of chives and whisk to incorporate.
• Spread 3 ounces of the goat cheese across the bottom.
• Pour the filling into the crust. Arrange the reserved asparagus spears on top. Sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon of chives and dot with the remaining ounce of goat cheese.
• Bake the quiche for 28-35 minutes, until the center is set, but still jiggles slightly when gently shaken.
• Transfer the quiche to a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
• Enjoy!

SPRING QUICHE WITH ASPARAGUS, TARRAGON, AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Rinse asparagus, then trim the tough ends off the stalks. Set aside 8-10 of the asparagus to leave whole, then chop the remaining asparagus into 1/2 inch pieces.
• Peel the garlic, then slice into thin rounds.
• In a saucepan, heat 1/2 tbs oil and 1/2 tbs butter over medium low heat. Add garlic and saute until just browned.
• Remove garlic from pan and set aside. Add remaining 1/2 tbs of butter and 1/2 tbs oil to pan and saute asparagus (cut and whole pieces) until just al dente. Do not overcook.
• While asparagus is cooking, whisk eggs, milk, tarragon, salt, and pepper together.
• When asparagus has finished cooking, separate out the full length spears and set aside. Sprinkle half the cut asparagus and half the garlic into the bottom of the pie crust.
• Carefully pour half the egg mixture into the pie crust, then grate 1/4 cup cheese on top. Place the pie into the oven on the middle rack and bake 15 minutes.
• When the 15 minutes have elapsed, gently sprinkle the remaining cut asparagus and garlic on top of the filling, then pour remaining egg mixture on top. Grate remaining 1/4 cup cheese on top. Arrange the full spears of asparagus artfully on top of the quiche in a spoke pattern, woven grid, or whatever pleases you.
• Bake 30 minutes or until filling is just set. Wiggle the pie plate to test that the center is not wet and jiggly. Let cool 10 minutes before cutting.

CABBAGE AND SPRING ONION QUICHE WITH CARAWAY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet and add onions. Cook, stirring often, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add a generous pinch of salt and continue to cook 3 to 5 minutes, until beginning to color. Add cabbage and cook, stirring often, until cabbage wilts, about 5 minutes. Add another pinch of salt and caraway seeds and continue to cook for another 5 to 10 minutes, until cabbage is sweet, cooked down, lightly colored and very tender. Taste, adjust salt, and add freshly ground 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 the bottom of the crust with some of the beaten egg and place in the oven for 5 minutes. (The egg seals the crust so that it won't become soggy when it comes into contact with the custard.)
• Add salt (I use 1/2 teaspoon), pepper, and milk to remaining eggs and whisk together.
• Spread cabbage and onion in an even layer in the crust. Sprinkle cheese evenly on top. Very slowly pour in the egg custard over the filling. If your tart pan has low edges, you may not need all of it to fill the quiche, and you want to keep the custard from spilling over. Place quiche, on baking sheet, in oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until set and just beginning to color on top. Remove from oven and allow to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving.
