ASPARAGUS AND FONTINA QUICHE
Mild, buttery Fontina cheese is delightful paired with earthy asparagus, but if you can't find it, you can replace it with provolone, or use all Gruyère here.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Using a vegetable peeler, slice the asparagus lengthwise into long, thin strips, starting just under the tip of each stalk. Leave the tips whole. (Alternatively, cut the asparagus into 1-inch pieces.)
- In a pot with a steamer insert or in a covered sauté pan fitted with an expandable steamer basket, bring 2 inches of water to a boil. Add the asparagus to the steamer insert or basket, cover, and steam until tender, about 30 seconds for strips and about 3 minutes for pieces.
- Rinse the asparagus under cold water to stop the cooking. Drain well and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, garlic salt, and pepper. Stir in the Fontina, Gruyère, and reserved asparagus.
- Pour the mixture into the unbaked pie shell.
- Bake until lightly golden and set in the center when the pan is gently pushed, 40 to 45 minutes. If the crust is browning too quickly, cover it with foil to prevent it from burning.
- Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Cut into 6 or 8 slices and serve warm or at room temperature.
- The quiche is best served the day it is made. Tightly wrap leftovers with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

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!

ASPARAGUS, GOAT CHEESE AND TARRAGON TART
Because you don't have to make your own crust, this gorgeous asparagus-striped tart is so easy it almost feels like cheating. But it's not. It's just simple yet stunning, effortlessly chic and company-ready. As there are so few ingredients in this recipe that each one makes an impact, be sure to buy a good all-butter brand of puff pastry. If you can manage to serve this tart warm, within an hour of baking, it will be at its absolute best, with crisp pastry that shatters into buttery bits when you bite down and still-runny cheese. But it's also excellent a few hours later, should you want to get all your baking done before your guests arrive. If tarragon isn't your favorite herb, you can use chives, basil or mint instead. And if you can manage to trim all the asparagus to the same length, this tart will be especially neat and orderly looking.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a medium bowl, use a fork or a wooden spoon to mash together the goat cheese, egg, garlic, tarragon, lemon zest, salt and nutmeg until smooth. Switch to a whisk and beat in the crème fraîche until smooth.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out puff pastry into a 13-by-11-inch rectangle about 1/8-inch thick. Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined cookie sheet. With a sharp knife, lightly score a 1/2-inch border around the edges of the puff pastry.
- Spread the crème fraîche mixture evenly inside the scored border. Line up the asparagus spears on top, and brush them with olive oil. Sprinkle some salt and the grated Parmesan over the asparagus.
- Bake until the pastry is puffed and golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Let it cool on the cookie sheet for at least 15 minutes or up to 4 hours before serving. Then sprinkle black pepper, red-pepper flakes (if using), the shaved Parmesan and tarragon leaves. Drizzle a little oil on top.

- Prepare Quiche Dough: Combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and salt in the bowl of a large food processor. Pulse several times to mix thoroughly. Add the cold, cubed butter, and pulse 10-12 times until the butter is incorporated and the butter is no smaller than pea-sized—you want the butter pieces to be in varying sizes, some small and others slightly larger. This will result in the flakiest crust.
- Remove the dough to a clean counter top, shape together with your hands into a square disc, and cover tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate the dough for a minimum of 30 minutes, preferably 1 hour (dough can be prepared up to two days in advance and kept wrapped tightly in the refrigerator).
- Blind-Bake Quiche Dough: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease an 8-inch x 11.5-inch rectangular (and 1-inch deep) tart pan, and set aside. Remove the dough from the fridge, and place on a clean, lightly floured counter top. Using a lightly floured rolling pin (starting from the center of dough to the outside), roll dough into a large rectanglen. It should be 1/4″ thick, or slightly thinner. Throughout the process, pick up dough carefully and flip around ensuring it does not stick.
