BETH'S MINI QUICHE RECIPE
Makes 8
4"-Mini Quiche (Print recipe here: https://entertainingwithbeth.com/mini-quiche-recipe/

For Crust:
2 ½ cups (300g) flour
½ tsp (2.5ml) salt
1 cup (240g) of butter, diced
2 egg yolks
¼ cup (60ml) ice water
For Egg Custard:
8 eggs
1 cup (240ml) heavy cream
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon (7 g) of cornstarch for lining pastry shells before filling with custard

For Fillings:
Leek and Swiss (makes 2)
1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
1 leek, sliced into thin circles
2 tablespoons (30ml) Swiss Cheese

Salmon, Goat Cheese Dill (Makes 2)
2 tablespoons (30ml) crumbled goat cheese
2 tablespoons (30ml) shredded smoked salmon
2 tablespoons (30ml) fresh dill, minced

Spinach and Feta (Makes 2)
2 tablespoons (30ml) feta cheese
2 tablespoons (30ml) thawed frozen spinach
2 tsp (10ml) fresh Italian parsley

Tomato, Pesto Mozzarella (Makes 2)
2 tablespoons (30 ml) mozzarella cheese
2 cherry tomatoes, sliced into 4-5 wheels each
1 tsp (10 ml) pesto

METHOD:

Add flour and salt to a food processor and pulse. Then add the butter, a little at a time, pulsing until a coarse meal forms.

Then measure out the water, add ice cubes to it. Then pour this water into another Pyrex pitcher, straining the ice. This will give you very cold water. Add the egg yolks and whisk to combine. Then slowly add the yolk mixture to the food processor pulsing all the while until the dough forms into a ball.

Transfer to a floured surface, press down into a disc and wrap in wax paper. Refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours, or overnight.

Roll out dough on a floured surface, to ¼ “ (6mm) thickness. Place tins upside down on the dough and cut out a circle about 1 inch (2.5 cm) larger than tin. Fit dough into the tin, pressing it down, and then pushing dough past the fluting to rip off naturally. Continue to fit the dough in tins, then trim edges with a sharp knife. Repeat the process until all tins are prepped with the dough. Place tins on a baking sheet and place in the freezer for 15 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350F (175C).

Meanwhile, mix together the egg filling. In a medium-size bowl or a Pyrex pitcher crack in 8 eggs and beat together. Then add the heavy cream. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Slice the leeks, white parts only, into circles. Sautee in olive oil until fragrant and crispy. Allow to cool.

Then prepare all the fillings and have everything measured out and ready to go.

Remove Quiche tin from the freezer and sprinkle a little of the cornstarch in the bottom of each pastry shell and brush to distribute with a pastry brush.

For each pastry add the cheese first. On the bottom.

Add the custard to each pastry shell with a Turkey Baster. Allows for excellent filling precision! Only fill ¾ of the way full. Top with the various fillings.

Bake at 350F (175C) for 30 minutes then increase to 375F (190C) and bake for 5-7 minutes until the pastry is golden brown.

Allow to cool slightly. Remove from tins and serve immediately or. Place cooled quiche on a baking sheet, cover loosely with foil. Pop in the fridge. And then reheat when ready to serve at 350F (175C) for 15 minutes.

To serve place quiche across 2 square plates with a little pound of parsley, microgreens or watercress in the center of a plate.
