Farmhouse Quiche
Ingredients for Tart Shell:
1 1/2 Cups AP Flour
¼ tsp. Salt
9 Tbsp. Cold Butter
4 Tbsp. Ice Water
Ingredients for Quiche Filling:
1 Cup Heavy Cream
1 Cup Eggs We use a mix of 2 Peacock, 2 Duck, 2 Chicken Eggs
1 Cup Fontina Cheese, shredded
1 Cup of Sautéed Leeks
Salt and Pepper to taste
In a food processor, combine Flour, Salt and Butter. Using short pulses, mix until the dough has a chunky oatmeal consistency, don't over mix. Add Ice Water and pulse rapidly until dough starts to come together and stop just before it becomes a ball. Remove dough from processor and onto a floured surface. Now use your hands to gather into a ball. Gently flatten the ball into a disk about 1-1/2 inches thick, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Roll out dough to about 1 inch bigger than the size of your Tart Pan, We use 12" Pan. Gently lay Dough over the pan and then press into the pan taking some of the overlapping dough from the edge and pressing a fatter lip around the edge to form the crust. Take your rolling pin and go back and forth over the top of the pan to cut away any excess dough. Put a layer of Parchment paper over your shell and fill shell with dry beans. This will help to set the form when you bake. In a 350 degree oven, in the center of the middle rack, Bake the tart with beans on top for about 12-15 minutes on low convection. Remove from oven, remove parchment and beans and bake for another6-8 minutes to lightly brown the shell. Remove shell and reserve at room temperature.
Sautee and then cool the leeks. It will take 2 or 3 cups of raw sliced leeks to yield 1 cup cooked leeks. Whisk the heavy cream and Eggs together with pinch of salt and pepper. Combine the leeks and cheese together and then put into the tart shell evenly. Pour the cream and egg mixture over the leeks and cheese. Bake quiche at 325 degrees, low convection for 22-28 minutes or until set and golden brown on top. Let cool for 15 -20 minutes then cut like a pie and eat!
