Mushroom And Tomato Quiche Food

MUSHROOM QUICHE

Steps:

• Roll out the dough: Roll out dough on a clean, lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Line a 10 by 1 1/2-inch tart pan with the rolled out dough. Trim the edges. Chill in freezer for 30 minutes. (You need to pre-freeze the raw crust or it will slip down the sides of the pan when it cooks.)
• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Pre-bake crust: Line the crust with aluminum foil or parchment paper, pushing into the bottom edge. Trim excess lining, but don't cut the foil or parchment paper too close to the crust, allow for enough room to easily lift it out. Fill it at least two-thirds with baking weights-dried beans (I keep a bag of pinto beans just to use for pie weights), rice, or aluminum pie weights. Bake initially for 15 minutes, then remove from oven and let cool a few minutes. Carefully remove parchment paper and weights. Poke the bottom of the pie crust with the tines of a fork and return to oven and bake an additional 10 minutes or until lightly golden. (Fork holes are for any air to escape.) Let cool on a rack while you make the filling.
• Sauté the shallots and mushrooms: Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Sauté the shallots for a minute, then add the mushrooms. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms release all of their moisture, and get well browned, about 10 minutes.
• Make the filling: Whisk together the cream, milk, and eggs in a medium bowl. Stir in nutmeg, salt and pepper.
• Assemble the quiche: Place the tart pan on a rimmed baking sheet to catch any run-off or leaks. Sprinkle half of the grated Gruyere over the bottom of the crust. Spread the mushrooms and shallots over the cheese in an even layer, and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Pour the egg mixture over the mushrooms and cheese in the crust.
• Bake: Put the baking sheet with the tart pan in the oven and bake at 350°F until the center is just set, still a little wiggly, about 30 to 35 minutes. Remove to a rack and let cool for 20 minutes before slicing.

MUSHROOM AND SUNDRIED TOMATO QUICHE

Steps:

• Turn off heat. Stir in the salt, sundried tomatoes, and dried parsley. Transfer to a small bowl and allow to cool completely, or pop into the fridge to speed up things.
• WHISK THE INGREDIENTS: In a medium-size bowl, whisk eggs, half & half, Parmesan cheese until well combined. Stir in the mozzarella cheese. Next, fold in the mushroom mixture and stir until well combined. Set aside.
• Remove 1 frozen pie crust from your freezer. Allow to warm up to room temperature for 2 - 3 minutes. Using your hands to gently loosen at the edges of the crust and push off the crust to remove it from the silver tray it comes in, and place the frozen pie crust directly into your prepared ceramic baking pie dish. Don't worry if you broke it, it will bake and fuse itself together. NOTE: Save the silver tray for reheating leftovers the next day.
• Pour the entire mixture into the pie crust.
• Place the quiche on the center rack of the oven and bake for 40 to 50 minutes. The center of the quiche must be firm when you lightly shake it and the top should be golden brown.
• Remove from oven and allow to sit and rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. QUICK NOTE: The quiche will puff up like a soufflé, but then it will deflate as it cools down.
