THE ORIGINAL ASPARAGUS QUICHE IS BAKED WITH A SHORTCRUST PASTRY
My asparagus quiche is based on the classic Quiche Lorraine, which comes from the French Region of Lorraine. The classic Quiche is baked with a shortcrust pastry and eggs and milk.
You have to admit, Yes, the dough itself consists of a few ingredients and is quickly made – BUT he must also be a 1 hour long cold be put to rest and homogeneous to be.
Here You will find my simple basic recipe for a savoury shortcrust pastry in a detailed step-by-step guide in pictures.
PUFF PASTRY FROM THE REFRIGERATED SECTION IS A QUICK ALTERNATIVE
If You have a dough like or want to do, You can use the asparagus quiche with puff pastry to prepare. The puff pastry of the Quiche lends his typical, knusprigeren taste. It is also done in the supermarket to buy a cooling rack, and makes the Quiche a Ruck-Zuck-Quiche. If it's supposed to go with me quickly, I make them often with ready puff pastry.
By the way, of course You get the finished dough in the supermarket to buy a cooling rack. However, if You take the finished dough for this Quiche to use, You should bake him also blind, and let cool slightly. At least this is my experience. If you don't, the dough is soft and is not as brittle. So, if you want to go with You really quickly, then You're supported from my point of view with the puff pastry better.
No matter what the ground, it is the time for Asparagus with green and white asparagus, the most popular Quiche in my family.
Very tasty Quiche-variations for the whole year are my Quiche with ham, mushrooms and Mozzarella , as well as my Quiche with leeks and ham. For cheese Fans, I recommend my white cheese Quiche with a Croissant bottom.
