Delicious Leek Quiche for All Moments

O Que Você Precisa Saber

- O refogado prévio do alho-poró na manteiga reduz o excesso de líquido e intensifica seus açúcares naturais. - O batimento dos ovos com creme de leite forma um creme sedoso que coagula macio no forno. - O cozimento a 180°C por 35 minutos gratina o queijo e doura a base de massa pronta de modo homogêneo.

Chef Tips

- Slice only the white and light green parts of the leek, discarding the tougher dark green leaves. - Wait for the leek to warm up before pouring into the liquid egg mixture so as not to coagulate the yolks. - Let the quiche rest for 10 minutes after the oven for the filling to settle and allow clean cuts.

Variations

- Adicione 100g de bacon picado e dourado na frigideira junto ao alho-poró para um toque defumado. - Coloque uma pitada de noz-moscada ralada na hora à mistura líquida de ovos para dar toque aromático. - Incorpore 1 xícara de cogumelos fatiados salteados na manteiga junto com o alho-poró macio.

Substitutions

- The ready-made pie crust can be swapped for ready-made laminated puff pastry, using the same weight of 300g. - Traditional heavy cream can be replaced with fresh ricotta cream with whole milk. - The grated mozzarella can be swapped for grated gruyère cheese or semi-cured canastra cheese.

How to Store

Let it cool completely before covering with plastic wrap. Store the quiche in the refrigerator in a sealed container for up to 3 days. To reheat while keeping the crust flaky, place in a preheated oven at 160°C for 12 minutes.

Can You Freeze It?

Freeze the baked quiche whole or in slices wrapped in plastic wrap and aluminum foil for up to 60 days. To consume, take it straight to the preheated oven at 180°C for about 20 minutes until the center is hot.

What to Serve With

Serve with a green leaf salad with a classic mustard and extra virgin olive oil vinaigrette. Pairs well with a glass of dry white wine, chilled white grape juice, or refreshing iced mate tea.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did the pie crust base get moist and soft?

This happens when the leek still contains too much water when entering the pie; sauté well until the pan is dry.

Can I pre-bake the crust before pouring in the liquid filling?

Yes, prick the base with a fork and bake for 10 minutes at 180°C to make it more impermeable and crispy.

Como saber se o recheio central da quiche está bem cozido?

Mova levemente a forma; o centro deve estar firme sem balançar, e um palito de madeira deve sair limpo e úmido.

Posso usar creme de leite de caixinha em vez de lata com soro?

Sim, o creme de leite de caixinha funciona muito bem, bastando misturar suavemente com os ovos sem bater em excesso.
