French conventional quiche with a seasonal twist: recent figs and goat cheese to steadiness fruit sweetness. And drizzle honey makes it decadent.
The factor that I really like about many French residence cooking recipes, apart from the truth that they’re tremendous straightforward to make, is that adaptation prospects are infinite. And savory tarts are a superb instance. So when recent fig season comes, I can’t assist myself baking a quiche. I feel that one of the best affiliation to steadiness the fruit sweetness is to have large chunks of cheese, and goat cheese is ideal.
Earlier than the recipe elements and directions, right here is a few info: filling prospects are infinite, with the identical base and all types of toppings. So when the figs are lastly in season, I see it, I can’t resist. I provide them immediately as a savory tart with:
- I favor puff pastry fairly than a shortcrust pastry for a lighter quiche, however you need to use shortcrust pastry if it’s simpler so that you can put together or when you have this on arms.
- Goat cheese I select goat log however chunks of recent goat cheese, fairly giant and never crumbled, is also high quality. I discover that the result is best with goat cheese log because it retains its texture higher as soon as baked within the quiche and because it’s a bit stronger in style, it balances fig sweetness.
- I add a pan-seared thinly sliced onion as a result of I feel it’s nice on this recipe, however you are able to do with out.
- Drizzling honey earlier than baking helps to caramelize.
- As for chives, they’ve a dressing fairly than gustative goal.
- You possibly can add walnuts or hazelnuts in the event you like. It may deliver a distinction of textures and likewise goes effectively in flavors.
And in the event you like quiches and savory tarts, there are a number of recipes on the weblog now. In fact the normal quiche Lorraine (with the story behind, I inform you why it shouldn’t comprise cheese), the spinach and bacon quiche which made my daughters love spinach, but additionally a caramelized onion and bacon quiche, corn and zucchini quiche, leek and haddock quiche. In addition to my mother’s bell pepper tart and a Paris button mushroom galette.
